MachMotion 2000 Series Manuel utilisateur
This installation of a MachMotion control upgrade is the same process no matter what machine type, make or model.
Please use the following manual as your guide to locate and mark the old wiring, remove the original system and install
the new MachMotion complete system. If you need clarification, please contact MachMotion technical support to help
you through the process.

1. Remove everything in the electrical enclosure besides the original transformer.
2. Remove the old cables running to the motors.
1. Mount the new electrical enclosure to the machine or if you just received a back panel it must be mounted
similar to the image below.

See the 2000 Series Mounting Arm Manual to mount the arm and control.
1. Remove round, rubber plug from the back of the control. Run conduit from the control to the back panel or
electrical enclosure
.
2. Connect ethernet cables, power connector cable, and E-stop cables into the control as shown below. (If you
have a Apollo III Motion Controller you will not need the EtherCAT blue cable)

Connect Cables to the Control
1. If using a RapidPath Motion Controller connect the light blue "EtherCAT" cable into N2 on the CTB servo drive.

2. Connect the green "Machine Network" cable into the VFD or the network switch.

3. Connect the blue "Internet" cable to your local network if you do not plan to use the built in WiFi. Internet is
not necessary to run the control. However, assistance from our support team will be greatly limited
without access to the internet.
4. Connect the control Power Connector cable to PC 24V, PC 0V and GND blocks.
5. For the Yaskawa drive, connect four E-stop cables to the E-10, E-11, E-20 and E-21 blocks as shown below.
Note: If you have an additional external E-stop, wire it in series with the control E-stop. You will need to connect your
external E-stop into the 24V block and the other side into the blank terminal block. Then connect the red wire from the
control E-stop into the blank terminal block as well. Finally, put the black wire from the control E-stop into the terminal
block labeled E-Stop.
1. Wire incoming power to the back panel into the top of the door switch. Be sure you are bringing in the
recommended voltage that is on the panel nameplate.
Wire Incoming Power
Mount the motors to the machine using the motor mounting plates provided (some improvising may be needed due to
different styles of machines). If possible, take a look at the gears and write down the number of teeth on the motor
gear and the ball screw gear. If you write down the gear ratio specifications, ball screw pitch, etc. now, it will make
calibration much faster later.

Run the motor cables (encoder and power) from the motors to the back panel or enclosure. If the machine was
equipped with CNC components before the upgrade the cables can usually follow the path of the old motor cables.
Take care when running the cables to keep them away from pinch points and sharp edges. The cables are protected by
robust insulation but repeated wear and tear will cause damage and eventual failure. If the cables must run over a
possible wear point, use some form of loom for additional protection. Keep in mind the motion of the machine and
possible cable snag points while the machine is moving.
There are several different variations for connecting the motor cables to the servo drives. Please review the schematic
that was sent to you by MachMotion.

Wire any inputs and outputs as shown in the diagrams below.
Please note, the output common comes pre-jumpered to the 120v circuit to the left of output wiring block as shown
below. Verify the voltage of each output destination before wiring. If any of your outputs run on 24VDC, make sure the
output common for that output is jumpered to 24V.
