Connecting the Cables

WARNING

To shut off power to the robot system, disconnect the power plug from the power source or use a disconnector. Be sure to connect the AC power cable to either a power receptacle or a disconnector. DO NOT connect it directly to a factory power source.
Before performing any replacement procedure, turn OFF the Controller and related equipment, and then disconnect the power plug from the power source. Performing any replacement procedure with the power ON is extremely hazardous and may result in electric shock and/or malfunction of the robot system.
Be sure to connect the cables properly. Do not allow unnecessary strain on the cables. (Do not put heavy objects on the cables. Do not bend or pull the cables forcibly.) The unnecessary strain on the cables may result in damage to the cables, disconnection, and/or contact failure.
Grounding the manipulator is done by connecting with the controller. Ensure that the controller is grounded and the cables are correctly connected. If the ground wire is improperly connected to ground, it may result in the fire or electric shock.

CAUTION

When connecting the Manipulator to the Controller, make sure that the serial numbers on each equipment match. Improper connection between the Manipulator and Controller may not only cause improper function of the robot system but also serious safety problems. The connection method varies with the Controller used. For details on the specifications, refer to the Controller manual.
Connecting cables to the Manipulator shall be performed by personnel who has taken robot system training held by us and suppliers. This should also be performed by qualified personnel with knowledge/skills in electricity. Cable connection performed by personnels without such knowledge/skill may result in injuries and malfunction.
