Details for 24 VDC Mating Connector
The 24 VDC mating connector and two pins are supplied with each system. They are
typically shipped in the cable/accessories box.
NOTE: The 24 VDC cable is not supplied with the system, but is available
in the optional Power Cable kit, see Table 5-1 on page 52 .
Procedure for Creating 24 VDC Cable
1. Locate the connector and pins from Table 5-4 .
2. Use shielded two-conductor cable with 14-16 AWG wire to create the 24 VDC
cable. Select the wire length to safely reach from the user-supplied 24 VDC power
supply to the MB-40R base.
NOTE: You also must create a separate 24 VDC cable for the
SmartController. That cable uses a different style of connector. See the
Adept SmartController User’s Guide .
3. Crimp the pins onto the wires using the crimping tool recommended in Table 5-4 .
4. Insert the pins into the connector. Confirm that the +24 V and Ground wires are in
the correct terminals in the plug.
5. Install a user-supplied ring lug (for an M3 screw) on the shield at the MB-40R end
of the cable.
6. Prepare the opposite end of the cable for connection to the user-supplied 24 VDC
power supply, including a terminal to attach the cable shield to frame ground.
