Ardent Automation part number: AAG-M
Manufacturer: Ardent Automation
Description: Ardent Accessory Kit – Gocator Multiple Camera Module
The AAG-M module is an accessory for up to 8 LMI3D Gocator G2 series sensors that condenses the LMI Gocator system (camera cables; wiring of the Master810) into a few standard M12 industrial connections, with an option to include an Ardent Automation Encoder to further simplify system configuration and setup. Additionally, the pluggable connection for the encoder at the camera location reduces the possibility of wiring errors and system noise on the encoder signals for accurate triggering of the camera system.
AAG-M Overview:
- An easy-to-use box that contains a Master810 and connections for up to 8 Gocator G2 series sensors as well as an optional encoder for triggering
- 3 standard M12 connections that allow quick start-up and easy integration into a larger system (Power, Ethernet, and Trigger Input)
- 24/48VDC wide input
- Standard cable lengths of 2m or 5m to allow for routing through robot or machine structures
- Additional options
- Encoder with M12 patch cable connection
- Power, I/O, and Ethernet home run connection cables from 2m to 10m
- Gocator cables sold separately
