11�2 Connection procedure
To configure CANopen (CAN2) for interfacing with 448/428.xx interfaces or directly with the robot control, proceed as
follows:
When the master node sends a Robot Ready signal to the power source, the welding system is ready to manage
commands sent by the CNC/Robot control according to the protocol and the operating procedures described in
manual code 3301084
NOTE:
With the robot interface activated, regardless of the power source operating mode programmed by the Robot Control
via the Operating Mode bits, it is possible to press icon
mode directly from the power source.
At this point, the icon turns green and both programming and operating mode of the welding process can be fully
managed from the power source touchscreen panel. To return to the operating mode programmed by the Robot
Control and the associated welding parameter settings, deactivate Internal Parameter Selection from the control
panel: press the robot icon, which will turn white.
Refer to the manuals for details of the signals available in robot mode:

Setting robot interface communication parameters:
Menu->Settings->External CAN Interface
Use encoder B to select and set CANopen parameters (see section
13.5).
Confirm using the pushbutton with the checkmark.
The icon flashes in the status bar
When communication with the Master node and Slave node (Interface/
Robot Control and power source) is correctly established, the icon in
the status bar stops flashing.
If the slave node (power source) does not receive an active Robot
Ready signal from the master CNC/Robot Control within 30 seconds,
the machine enters WARNING status: screen background orange
and error code [90].
