Introduction
The UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 are the latest addition to the Renishaw CMM controller product range. They support the complete range of
Renishaw two wire touch-trigger probes along with the high performance SP25M and SP600 (UCC S3 only) . Support for conventional
contact, strain-gauge sensors (TP200), motorised probe heads, stylus changers and temperature compensation are all built into these
controllers.
Key Description
1 Machine motors
2 Machine scales and readheads
3 Probe head - manual or CNC (PH10 PLUS) - connects to the UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 via the machine cabling
4 UCCassist-2 commissioning software and application software
5 UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 and power amplifier SPA3 - these connect to the machine cabling
6 MCU joystick - MCUlite-2, MCU5 or MCU W - connects to SPA3
7 PC - connects to UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 via an Ethernet cable
8 MCR20 rack
The UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 is a controller in a 19 inch rack-mountable enclosure. It is coupled to the CMM host computer by an
Ethernet link and to the CMM via external cable interface connectors.

The UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 controllers in conjunction with the SPA3 have the capability of:
controlling three axes of a CMM (accepting digital readhead signals and generating three axes of motor drive signals)
accepting input signals from emergency stop, air pressure, crash detector, digital SPA, amplifier faults and all axis inner and outer travel
limit switches
accepting two uncommitted general purpose input signals and generating one uncommitted general purpose output signal
PH10 and PH10 PLUS interfacing
directly supporting the TP1, TP2, TP6, TP20 and TP200 touch-trigger probes and SP25 and SP600 scanning probes (UCC S3 only)
directly supporting the Renishaw TEC (16 channels) and RS232 (Mitutoyo) TEC systems
providing a +24 V supply for use by the CMM switches
The UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 supports the MCUlite-2, MCU5 and MCU W joysticks through the SPA3.
This guide gives information on physical installation, system connections and communications, as well as assistance in fault finding during
the installation of the UCC T3 PLUS or UCC S3.
WARNING: UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 are not compatible with PH9, PHS, PH20 and REVO systems. No attempt should be made to
connect these system components to the UCC T3 PLUS or UCC S3 as this will result in damage to the product or attached
equipment.
Please use this guide in conjunction with the PH10, TP200 and SP25M user's guide in order to fully understand the system's features,
capabilities and operation.
The UCC T3 PLUS / UCC S3 do not support TP7.

Connecting the UCC T3 PLUS or UCC S3 to the host PC
Hardware connection
The host PC must have a dedicated Ethernet connection to the CMM controller. It is recommended that this is not a USB plug-in adapter
because of the reduction in speed these devices can produce.
If the host PC is connected to a network, it is necessary to install additional hardware to allow a dedicated connection for UCC T3 PLUS or
UCC S3 communication. For details on how to install additional hardware on the host PC, please refer to the manufacturer user's guide.
The CMM controller is capable of using 1 Gbps Ethernet (with appropriate cable).
A 5 m Ethernet cable is provided for this link as part of the CMM controller kit. The cable included is a Cat 5E, cross-over type. Other
lengths may be used, but the maximum length is determined by the generic specification for Ethernet connections.
It is recommened that a shielded Ethernet cable is used if there is a likelihood of EMC disruption due to the environment or location of the
routed cable.
It is recommended that the cross-over cable is labelled to avoid being mistaken for a non cross-over cable.
Software installation
UCCsuite 4.7 or newer software must be installed on the host PC prior to connection of the UCC T3 PLUS or UCC S3. The UCC software
suite can be downloaded from the Renishaw website. After the software has been installed, run UCCassist-2 to set up and configure the
CMM controller.

IP configure / reset button
Number 5 on the rear panel is the reset button which has two different functions. The function depends on the operational state of the
controller.
1. Pressing and releasing the reset button within fifteen seconds of switching on or rebooting the unit will force the controller into IP
configuration state.
2. Pressing and releasing the reset button after the download or whilst operating will cause the unit to restart.
To enter IP configuration state when the unit is already powered, press and release the reset button twice.

NOTE: A scale error will cause the UCC T3 PLUS or UCC S3 to enter an error state which is not recoverable within a metrology
application environment. If a scale error occurs it will be necessary to reinitialise the installation due to the possibility of lost scale
counts and metrology being effected.
This section on troubleshooting is a guide to problems associated with the installation and integration of the PH10 system only. Refer to the
'PH10 PLUS installation and user's guide' (Renishaw part number H-1000-5070) regarding problems associated with normal operation of
the PH10 system.
The UCC T3 PLUS or UCC S3 will assert PICS STOP under the following conditions:
Condition Notes
Overload error Head has been overloaded when locked, causing it to unlock.
Obstruct error Head has been obstructed when moving to requested position or is unable to lock into it.
Head disconnect Head removed, cables disconnected, cable break
Datum error The head has failed to lock up correctly.
Pressing and releasing the E-STOP button will clear the PICS STOP providing the cause has been addressed.
Use the tables below to identify problems you are experiencing with your PH10 PLUS system. If you experience problems which you are not
able to identify or solve satisfactorily, please contact Renishaw for further advice.
No head movement in automatic mode:
Possible cause Solution
Cable / connection fault Check connection and integrity of cabling between head and controller.
UCC T3 PLUS and UCC S3 CMM controller installation guide
http://www.renishaw.com
Issued 04 2014
24
Page 24
No probe signal from PH10 PLUS:
Possible cause Solution
Cable / connection fault Check connection and integrity of cabling between head and controller.
Multiwire bypass connector not
fitted
Fit a multiwire bypass connector which will permit a standard touch-trigger probe signal to reach
controller.
Multiwired probe in use (SP25M) Check that the multiwire cable is correctly fitted to the head.
Check that the trigger output to the CMM controller is connected to the multiwired probe interface.
Poor measurement performance assiociated with the PH10 PLUS:
Possible cause Solution
Loose mounting of head Ensure all mounting screws are tight and mounting to CMM is secure.
Probe damping enabled during measurement Ensure probe damping is not enabled during measurement moves.
Stylus is too close to the surface before taking point Increase standoff distance in program.

Maintenance
WARNING: Maintenance should only be carried out after the machine has been isolated from the electrical supply, compressed air
supply or other energy sources in accordance with the machine manufacturer's instructions.
Periodically check that all mounting screws and electrical connectors are securely tightened. Electrical safety checks should include
inspecting the mains cable for damage and the safety of the connections. Periodical safety checks should also include the function of the
emergency stop system, including operation of all switches integrated into the system.
Remove dust from the external surfaces with a clean dry cloth as the unit is not sealed against liquid.
Filter replacement
UCC T3 PLUS or UCC S3 uses an internal air flow for cooling purposes. This system has a replaceable filter to minimise the ingress of
dust. The condition of the of the filter should be checked on a regular basis. It is recommended that this filter is removed and
checked/replaced as necessary or every 12 months.
The following procedure should be followed when replacing the air filter:
Remove power from the controller
Remove the 19 inch rack mounting brackets (if fitted) by removing the two fixing screws (not shown)
Pull the head of both the filter retaining clips away from the unit so they disengage
Pull away the external filter cover
Remove the filter material from the filter recess
Replace the filter using the reverse of the method given above (the replacement filter part number is A-5518-0011)
Advisory
It is recommended that periodical metrology tests are performed in order to identify any faults in subsystems eg air bearings, structure,
cables, software etc.
