Chapter 3: System Installation ENET - Two Ethernet ports are available. One will be needed to connect to a PC running Adept ACE software. 3.6 Connecting 24 VDC Power to Robot Specifications for 24 VDC Robot and Controller Power Table 3-1. VDC User-Supplied Power Supply NOTE: Fuse information is located on the eAIB electronics. The requirements for the user-supplied power supply will vary depending on the configuration of the robot and connected devices. Adept recommends a 24 VDC, 6 A power supply to allow for startup current draw and load from connected user devices, such as solenoids and digital I/O loads.
If multiple robots are to be sourced from a common 24 VDC power supply, increase the supply capacity by 3 A for each additional robot. CAUTION: Make sure you select a 24 VDC power supply that meets the specifications in the preceding table. Using an underrated supply can cause system problems and prevent your equipment from operating correctly. See the following table for recommended power supplies. Table 3-2.
