■ Outline
The extension serial interface is the option to add a serial communication function to
the robot controller. One channel of RS-232C interface is provided in the front of the
controller. By using the extension serial interface, more channels can be added in
order to allow the use of a personal computer, vision sensor and PLC at the same
time. Also, in addition to RS-232C communication, RS-422 communication, which is
superior in noise resistance, is also supported.
The extended option box (CR1-EB3) is required separately. Refer to Page 59, "(4)
Expansion option box" for ditails.
Caution) 1)This option can only be used with the robot controller's main unit software
version E1 or later.
