Wiring of the Force Sensor Cable
The following are recommended wiring examples of the Force Sensor and rough operation ranges of the Manipulator. For actual applications, fix the wiring according to your Manipulator use.
GX series-S2503, S2506, S25010
Wiring example 1: When using the D-sub
GX8, GX10, and GX20 series use the user connector D-sub (9-pin) to install the Force Sensor.
Wiring example 2: When using the cable duct, external wiring option, etc.
For GX4 series, install the cables on the exterior of the Manipulator using the cable duct.
When installing the cables outside the Manipulator, make sure to install the ground wire of the relay cable to the specified position on the Manipulator.
For GX8, GX10, and GX20 series, external wiring is available with the following option products.
Option product | Code | ||
---|---|---|---|
External wiring unit | GX8-***S | For Table top mounting /standard model | R12NZ901BY |
GX8-***SR/SW | For Ceiling /Wall mounting /standard model | R12NZ901BZ | |
GX10/GX20***S | For Table top mounting /standard model | R12NZ900GZ | |
GX10/GX20***SR/SW | For Ceiling /Wall mounting /standard model | R12B031912 | |

Wiring example 1 and 2 use the attached cable mounts and wire ties for the following fixing parts A and B. For other parts, fix the cables according to the Manipulator motion.
CAUTION
- The cables may deform during storage. Caution is required this regard. The cable's bend radius is at least five times larger than the cable diameter (R=30 mm or larger).
- The cable may rub against the Manipulator or get under tension as shown in the photo below depending on the Manipulator motion. When routing the cable, be careful in this regard and check if it touches and rubs against the Manipulator or is under tension.
