Hello list,
Paul Anderson and myself are trying to figure out the available cabling options that allow
to connect an RK611 controller to RK06/RK07 drives.
To my knowledge, there is the possibility to get a drive connect via:
RK611 <-> flat cable <-> cabinet transition bracket <-> round cable
<-> RK06/07
The part numbers I found so far:
Flat cable: BC-06R-xx
round cable: 70-12292
or BC23Z-xx
The transition bracket's PN is 70-12415 and is the same as for RL01/RL02
configurations.
The round cable with same connectors as used for RL01/02 cannot be used for RK06/07 as not
all cables are wired to the connectors. But a RK06/07 cable can be used for RL01/RL02.
Can the BC-06R also be used for RL01/RL02?
Apparently, there are also direct cable connections between RK611 and RK06/07 existing. In
that case, no transition bracket is needed.
BC80M shielded: RK611 to first drive
... and the cable required to connect two RK07/07 drives:
BC17E shielded
Can anybody help us in confirming and correcting us regarding the cabling configurations
and the part numbers?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Have a nice Sunday,
Pierre
