Additional SOCLB functionality includes interfacing for the standard manual pulse generator (100 pulse
per revolution handwheel) provided on the Advantage 8xx CNC system, as well as interfacing for an
optional Delta Tau Remote Handwheel.
The SOCLB has one on-board status LED to indicate that DC power is applied. The following details the
status LED:
Label Color Comment
D3 Red When on, indicates either +12vdc or +5vdc is present at J28
SOCLB Options
The SOCLB has several options available for additional features and functionality. These options and
their associated functionalities are listed below.
• SOCLB Option 1, 12 Additional Pushbutton Panel LED Indicator Lamps
The standard Advantage 8xx has 12 pushbuttons with associated green and red LED outputs. These
LEDs are for the eight user assignable pushbuttons, cycle start, feed hold, jog plus and jog minus
pushbuttons. If the application either requires or desires additional pushbutton panel LEDs, then
order SOCLB Option 1.
Option Number Additional LEDs Comment
SOCLB Option 1 12 Green & 12 Red LEDs J16, J17, J18, J19, J20, J21, U21, U22, & U23 added
• SOCLB Option 3, Advantage 600/700 Switch Panel Support
The SOCLB can interface with an Adv 600/700 operator control switch panel if desired. When
SOCLB Option 3 is purchased, a 37-pin DB connector is added to the SOCLB (J37) to interface with
the Adv 600/700 operator control switch panel. Additionally, two relays (K1 and K2) and two 2-
screw Phoenix terminals (TB1 and TB2) are added to the board.
• SOCLB Option 4, 2x 1 x 4 Button Key Pad
Some Advantage 8xx applications may not require the rotary axis select switch provided with the
standard Advantage 8xx CNC system, but still need an input device. Delta Tau has designed SOCLB
Option 4 for these applications. When SOCLB Option 4 is ordered, two additional four-button
keypads can be interfaced to the SOCLB. SOCLB Option 4 supporting hardware includes J30, J31,
J32, J33, J34 & J35 (10 pin IDC connectors to interface with the two key pads), and U10, U24 and
U25 (one input driver device and two output driver devices so each key pad can have a green and red
LED associated with each button).
Operator Control Panel Functions
Auto Mode Pushbutton
When the Auto Mode pushbutton is pressed, the Advantage 8xx CNC system enters the Auto operational
mode. Auto mode permits the Advantage 8xx CNC system to execute G-code programs. Prerequisites
for Auto Mode operation are that all machine axes must have been referenced (homed) during machine
startup and that no axis can be on a position (software) limit or overtravel switch.
