Yaskawa JANCD-CG05 Graphic & Communication Board

JANCD-CG05 is the latest high-performance graphic and communication PCB in Yaskawa’s JANCD-CG series, serving as the premium upgrade over CG01/CG02/CG03. Designed for YASNAC CNC systems and Motoman robot controllers, it integrates cutting-edge graphic processing, multi-protocol high-speed communication, and industrial-grade reliability. As a core auxiliary board paired with the main CPU, it delivers ultra-high-resolution HMI, real-time data visualization, and stable external connectivity for high-precision and intelligent automation applications.

Description

Model Definition

  • JANCD: Yaskawa standard prefix for CNC/robot control PCBs.

  • CG: Graphic & Communication (ultra-high-end color graphic + multi-protocol communication).

  • 05: Fifth hardware revision, featuring latest-gen 64-bit MCU, fully optimized circuit layout, extended extreme environmental tolerance, and military-grade EMC protection compared to earlier CG models.

Technical Specifications

Electrical

  • Power Supply: 24 V DC ±30% (ultra-wide tolerance for severe industrial power fluctuations)

  • Processor: 64-bit high-performance graphic/communication MCU with 50% faster rendering and data processing than CG03

  • Interfaces: Ultra-high-resolution color LCD/CRT port, RS-232/485, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and expanded dedicated panel I/O (doubled I/O pins vs. CG03)

  • Protocols: Ethernet TCP/IP, Modbus RTU/TCP, Yaskawa proprietary protocols, industrial IoT/OPC UA support, and multi-fieldbus compatibility

  • EMC: Military-grade surge, electrostatic discharge, and noise immunity (optimized for extreme high-noise factory floors)

Mechanical & Environmental

  • Mounting: Standard slot mount in controller racks (fully backward-compatible with CG01/CG02/CG03 slots)

  • Dimensions: Approx. 220 mm × 180 mm × 35 mm (enhanced heat sink for extreme stability)

  • Weight: 0.7–0.9 kg (reinforced components for harsh conditions)

  • Operating Temperature: -10 °C to 60 °C (extended range for cold storage and high-temperature workshops)

  • Humidity: 5%–95% (non-condensing, ultra-wide range for extreme humidity environments)

  • Protection Class: IP20 (industrial cabinet use; conformal coating as standard for dust/moisture resistance)

Core Functions

  • Drives ultra-high-resolution color LCD/CRT panels for crystal-clear real-time display of machining data, axis positions, CNC programs, alarms, and system diagnostics.

  • Processes inputs from MDI keyboards, manual pulse generators, and function keys with minimal latency for seamless HMI operation.

  • Enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet-based ultra-high-speed communication with host computers, PLCs, and peripherals, supporting massive data transfers and remote real-time monitoring.

  • Offloads graphic rendering and data preprocessing from the main CPU, significantly boosting system efficiency and reducing latency.

  • Features AI-enhanced diagnostic and monitoring tools for onboard circuits, panel status, and communication links, simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting.

  • Supports multi-language display, customized HMI interfaces, and edge computing integration for global and intelligent automation deployments.

Application

  • YASNAC J30/J50/J100/i80 series CNC machine tools (ultra-high-precision lathes, 5-axis/7-axis mills, high-speed machining centers).

  • Motoman XRC/NX100/DX200/YRC1000 robot controllers (precision welding, heavy-duty material handling, high-speed assembly, and intelligent painting robots).

  • Premium Yaskawa automation line upgrades; direct drop-in replacement for CG01/CG02/CG03 boards (pin-compatible with minor firmware updates).

  • Industrial IoT/AI-enabled CNC/robot systems requiring remote data access, real-time monitoring, and edge computing integration.

Compatibility & Notes

  • Compatible with backplanes: JANCD-B, JANCD-BB03, JANCD-BB50, JANCD-BB100, JANCD-BB200 (match controller model).

  • Not interchangeable with main CPU boards or standard digital I/O boards.

  • Fully pin-compatible with CG01/CG02/CG03 but offers superior performance, wider environmental tolerance, and better communication stability.

  • Requires latest controller firmware for full feature utilization (backward-compatible with older firmware for basic operation).

  • Ensure adequate cabinet ventilation and clean, stable power supply to maximize service life in extreme industrial environments.
