RosettaCNC Board B is an ETHERNET motion controller that manages up to 6 interpolated axes. The ETHERNET port (instead of USB) ensures fast and secure transmission thanks to the protocol and at the e galvanic insulation with the PC connection.
Does not require the use of external electronic parts or protectors. The power supply is integrated and protected, The inputs and outputs are equipped with opto-insulation that guarantee, together with the metal container, high resistance to electromagnetic interference. The outputs are protected from short circuits and allow you to directly connect inductive loads (relays or solenoid valves), without having to add external components.
The control outputs of STEP/DIR type are generated by a powerful FPGA That allows to reach operating frequencies of 1MHz making it possible to use both step-by-step drives and servo drives.
Rosetta CNC Board commands the axes using a look ahead that allows you to achieve high interpolation speeds.
The product can possibly be equipped with a handwheel, supplied already complete with connector, alternatively, it makes available inputs for the jog connection joystick type and other useful control signals.
Rosetta CNC Board is equipped with removable spring connectors to allow quick wiring, highly reliable and free to vibrations.

Check that the product features match your needs.

RosettaCNC Board it's powered in low voltage, 24VDC, the I/O line are opto-insulation and the PC connection is galvanically isolated, therefore the device is not a direct threat to the health and life of the user.
The design of a complete control system (electric panel), should draw attention to different aspects of, so that the whole machine system does not become a danger during the use.
It's good practice to always use NC contacts for the limit switches and for the emergency button So that a wiring error or a wire disconnection always lead to machine shutdown.
Special attention must be paid to the emergency stop circuit: The control system must be designed in such a way the that when you press the button for emergency stop, the machine immediately interrupts the movement of all axes. You should also consider the possibility of failure of particular components of the system, as the main controller, or the axes control units.

Here are two examples of connection. The first uses the Safe Torque Off (STO) input Present in drives.
The second uses a safety device to control the chain of emergency signals.

In the below picture, is used a safety device Pilz model PNOZ X7. The emergency button, and possibly other alarm signals (safety barriers, crankcase opening, etc.) must be connected to the input circuits. An output must be connected to the EST1 input of RosettaCNC Board And in series also the drive ok outputs. The other exit of the safety module must be used to stop power to drives.
S1 is the Restore button.
S2 is the stop button in emergency.

The digital inputs called “User input” can be configured by the RosettaCNC software to perform some functions. For example; ESTOP 1, Spindle ok speed, Spindle zero speed, Limit, Start, Safety barriers, etc.

The following connectors are used for different functionalities depending on the value of the “Controller type” parameter. This parameter is present in the “RosettaCNC card settings” panel → Jog. Furthermore, the digital inputs named MPG can be configured through the RosettaCNC software to manage override. The settings are found in the “RosettaCNC Tab Settings” → “Overrides” panel. The following override can be managed:

• Jog Speed
• Fast Speed (G0)
• Feed Speed (G1,G2,ecc)
• Spindle Speed

Each analogue input can be configured via the RosettaCNC software to manage an override. The settings are found in the “RosettaCNC tab Settings ” Panel → “Overrides”.

The following parameters can be set:

• Jog Speed
• Fast (G0) Speed
• Feed (G1,G2,ecc) Speed
• Spindle Speed

It is possible to connect a Panasonic HG-C1100-P Micro Laser Distance Sensor to the AI1 input.

The following operations are possible through the laser sensor:

• Surface scan for 3D model (model STL file creation and TXT file with acquired data cloud).
• Scan for surface flatness mapping (creation of surface STL files and TXT files with acquired data cloud).

To function properly the sensor must be reset to the factory settings and analogue input AI1 must be set in 0-20mA amperometric configuration.

The digital outputs, called “User Output ”, can be configured by the RosettaCNC software to make some functions. For example: Spindle start with clockwise rotation, Spindle start with anti-clockwise rotation, air activation, water activation, aux outputs 1.. 4, etc.

Inserting one of the JP3, JP4 o JP5 jumpers, You can choose the operating voltage of the STEP and DIR outputs.

	Name jumper	Setting	Nominal voltage
	JP7	INSERTED	Selects the STEP/DIR signal voltage to 5V
	JP6	INSERTED	The STEP/DIR signals have a voltage equal to the value in the 1A or 1B terminals. These terminals must be supplied with an external power supply.
	JP5	INSERTED	Selects the STEP/DIR signal voltage to 12V

Analogue output Connection to an inverter

Below we will illustrate some useful wiring diagrams as an example for the design of the complete control system (electric panel).

In the following example we see a wiring diagram of three stepper drives. The HOME switches are also used as a limit for the direction of movement where the homing procedure is executed. For the other direction, uses three NC switches in series and connected with the LIM input.

In this case the correct setting of the inputs in the configuration panel will be:

The following outputs are available for the spindle control:

• Digital output for clockwise rotation control
• Digital output for counterclockwise rotation control
• Analog output for Speed variation

The choice of the digital outputs to use for these functions is performed in the “Outputs” panel in “RosettaCNC card settings” As shown in the picture:

The M3 or M4 codes will activate the outputs, M5 will disable them.

If RosettaCNC Board controls also the spindle rotation speed then you must connect the analog output 0÷10V to the analog input of the drive. In the maximum speed parameter, you must set the the speed reached by the drive to the maximum voltage of 10V.

The “Start Time” parameter if set delays the execution of the Gcode to allow the spindle to reach the set speed. This time is also used when turning off the spindle.
In RosettaCNC Board are available also two digital inputs that can be used to inform the Controller when the spindle has reached the set speed or when it's stopped. The following picture shows where to set the reference speed to 10V, The start time and the configuration of the inputs:


If the inputs are configured then the value in the start time parameter always indicates the minimum wait time although the logic level of the input does not require a wait.

The following shows four examples:

• The easiest way is to always operate in the personal computer where the software RosettaCNC is installed. Here will be commanded the Jogs, the homing sequences, starting and stopping the Gcode programs, etc. Below is a graphical representation of the solution:
  .
  On the machine side only the ESTOP emergency button will be present (and possibly the reset button). In addition, MPG devices can be set up to control the override (up to four devices), or analogue potentiometers (up to three devices). In this case the value of the “Controller type” parameter is not significant. The CN19 connector remains unconnected and the CN17 connector can be used as MPG1.
  
• With the following solution, the following control devices are wired near the machine (in addition to the ESTOP emergency button): Joystick for the X-Y-Z jog. A button for selecting Jog Fast speeds. Possible button to modify the joystick control Z in A B or C. The following is a graphical representation of the solution:
  .
  In addition an MPG device can be set up for control of override (up to three devices), or analogue potentiometers (up to three devices). In this case the value of the “Controller type” parameter must be set to “Dual Joystick”.
  
• With the following solution a handwheel is installed near the machine to check manual movements. During operation, if set in configuration, the handwheel can also be used to control the override (configuring the operation of the MPG1 device). Finally, always if set in configuration the handwheel button can also be used to perform a reset of the selected axis. The following is a graphical representation of the solution:
  .
  In addition to the flyer, an MPG device for override control can be set up near the machine (up to three devices), or analogue potentiometers (up to three devices). In this case, the value of the “Controller type” parameter must be set to “HandWheel A”.
  
• With the following solution, the following control devices are wired near the machine (in addition to the ESTOP emergency button): a Joystick for the jog+ and Jog-. Up to six buttons for axis selection. A button to reset the axis. The following is a graphical representation of the solution:
  .
  In addition, an MPG device can be set up to control the override (up to four devices), or analogue potentiometers (up to three devices). In this case the value of the “Controller type” parameter must be set to “Single Joystick”.
  

• Green Led POW, indicates that the device is powered.
• Green Led RUN, indicates that the device is working.
• Yellow Led STOP, indicates that the device is in a stop state.
• If flashes the Red Led ERROR, the controller is in an error state. You can try turning off and on again, if the problem persists, the product should be sent to technical support through the purchase channel used.

The firmware implements a series of virtual user inputs and outputs that can be used with Modbus ® communication.

Below is the list of virtual user inputs and their relationship with the numbering of virtual inputs in Modbus ®.

Below is the list of virtual user outputs and their relationship with the virtual output numbering in Modbus ®.

Starting from 1.52 firmware version it is possible to use these user inputs as index during homing.

Starting from software version 1.9.4 it is possible to connect the IQ023 accessory to the control PC.
The use of this accessory must be enabled in the board settings.
