CONNECTING THE SIGNALS
The Input/Output signals are connected via the connectors located on the front panel of the controller.
Figure
4.11
The signals must be connected using shielded cables whose shield is grounded at the both ends. This is
necessary both for the emergency stop signals
(J109)
and for the digital links (serial links, Ethernet, etc.).If screw
terminal type connectors are preferred, an adaptor from
Sub D
to screw terminal is commercially available from
several sources such as
Phoenix Contact
and others.
The brackets used to hold the controller in place also provides protection from electrical noise. It is thus useful for
the fastenings
(8)
to be linked to the ground circuit of the cell as a whole.
Note:
For
RS
robots, there are also Inputs/Outputs available on the arm.
