12. Precautions for Use
The user connector comes with a mating 16-pin plug.
Connector pins 1 to 15 can be used. Pin 16 is connected to a shield wire and cannot be used as a signal wire.
Use a cable with an outer diameter of 13.1 to 15.0. The wiring method for the supplied connector is shown
below.
[1]: Screw the barrel into the end bell and secure with setscrew A.
[2]: Push the cable gasket and washer into the end bell and screw in the clamp nut by holding the end bell in
position.
[3]: Move the cable back and forth and to the left and right to ensure smooth movement, tighten the clamp nut
again to the specified torque, and secure with screw B.
~ Tightening torque for each screw
End bell: 10 kgf-cm to 15 kgf-cm
Clamp nut: 15 kgf-cm to 20 kfg-cm
Setscrew A, B: 2 kgf-cm to 3 kgf-cm
If the waterproof user connector and user piping joint are not used, put the supplied cap and blind plug to seal
the openings, respectively. If not, water and dust will enter.
Before commencing wiring/piping work, turn off the power to the controller and the power/air supplies to the
robot. Failure to do so may cause the robot to malfunction.
Use cables and tubes within their specifications. Failure to do so may result in fire or short circuit due to an
overheated cable, or may cause air leaks.
Connect the shielded cable to the hood. Otherwise, the robot may malfunction due to noise.
If the user connector is not used, put the cap to seal the opening. If not, water and dust will enter.
Tighten the connector to the specified torque.
If the outer diameter is smaller than the one specified for the applicable cable, use tape, etc., to adjust the
outer diameter before installing.
