3. Setup and Connections
NOTICE
Do not store or set up the system in an area where it is directly exposed to sunlight. High temperatures
can adversely affect the precision of the system, and sunlight can affect the optical home sensor. Do not
operate the robot where electrical noise is present.
3.1 Installation Requirements
The system should be placed in a location where the front panel controls can be1. viewed and accessed.
Ventilation holes on the components should not be blocked.2. The equipment is grounded through the power cord. Connect to a properly3. grounded power source before operating.
The equipment must be grounded to
reduce the risk of static sparking and
electric shock. Electric or static sparking
can cause fumes to ignite or explode.
Improper grounding can cause electric
shock. Grounding provides an escape wire
for the electric current.
The air pressure for the main air supply should be between 70 and 100 psi4. (0.48 and 0.70 MPa).
NOTICE
It is imperative that the air supplied to the jet is clean, dry, and free from debris and water. A 40 micron
filter is highly recommended. If the air is not clean and dry, serious damage can occur to the air solenoid
valves.
3.2 Setup Overview
Remove shipping brackets1. Attach the PC2. Connect the controller and robot3. Connect the PC4. Mount the jet5. Connect the jet6. Turn on power7. Test system components (pneumatics, communication, I/O, emergency stop)8.

3.6 Connect PC and Peripherals
3.7 Mount the Jet
Before attaching the jet, make sure that the controller Power switch and Fluid Air switch
are both OFF.
Locate the quick-release jet mount. The jet mount is installed1. at the factory with the bottom of the jet mount sitting flush
with the bottom of the Z mounting plate.
Determine the correct jet mount position. For proper2. placement, lines are notched into the Z head at 3 mm
intervals, as shown in Figure 8.
The flush mount position is for standard flat nozzles.
Align the jet mount bottom with the bottom of the
Z head, as shown in Figure 9 (left).
For 3 mm nozzles, align the jet mount bottom with the
first line (3 mm up), as shown in Figure 9 (center).
For 6 mmm nozzles, align the jet mount bottom with the
second line (6 mm up), as shown in Figure 9 (right).
Use a 3 mm wrench to tighten the four jet mount screws.3. Insert the bottom of the dovetail bracket into the middle slot4. of the jet mount, as shown in Figure 11. Push down firmly.
Tighten the jet mount screw, as shown in Figure 11.5.

3.8 Connect Jet Cables to Robot Z Head
Note: Connect the cables in the order listed to avoid unintended dispensing (and the resultant mess).
Attach the Jet Valve Cable. Align the connector and1. twist the locking ring to tighten.
Attach the CLEAR Fluid Air Pressure tubing and push2. it straight into the FLUID connector until it clicks.
Attach the BLACK Jet Air Pressure tubing and push it3. straight into the JET connector until it clicks.
Attach the Height Sensor (HTS) cable. Align the4. connector and twist the locking ring to tighten.
3.9 Connect Components to Power
There are four power connections for the UniXact Automated Jet Dispense System:
UniXact Tabletop Robot
Advanjet HV-2100C or HM-2600C Controller
Monitor
PC (via power adapter)
A power cord/adapter set (P/N 25E557) with connectors for each of the regions listed is
provided for the robot, the controller, and the monitor:
Standard 115 V, 10A cord for USA, Mexico, Canada, Taiwan, and similar
250V cord for continental Europe
Adapter for UK, Australia, and similar
For the PC, a set of regional 320-C5 adapters is provided (P/N 25E758).
The camera is powered through the robot via USB. The keyboard and mouse use
batteries.
The controller and robot are grounded through their power cords. Connect the power
cords to a properly grounded power source before operating.
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking and electric shock. Electric
or static sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode. Improper grounding can cause electric
shock. Grounding provides an escape wire for the electric current.
