In this article you will find a brief description of how hardware software fits together in different models of the S4C ABB robot.

The most important thing is maybe what Main Computer, Robot Computer and Memory expansion board is used. The IRB340 (Picker), requires power supply DSQC365 with extended energy (M98 rev.2 w840).

To use DSQC365, a new back plane with separated 24 V supply is needed. The new back plane introduced during M98 is DSQC369 (base+NIOC) and DSQC370 (Opt.IB-S/Profibus DP M/S), and they will replace DSQC330/340.

A new standard power supply, DSQC374, will replace DSQC334 used in M97A (and the first M98). Only difference is increased 24 V I/O supply to 7.5A (6A earlier).
