7.5 Mounting Locations for External Equipment
NOTE: When the Break-away E-Stop function has been enabled, you must con-
nect a normally-closed circuit to pins 1 and 2 of the ESTOP connector, as
described above. If this is not done, the system will be in an E-Stop condition
and you will not be able to enable power.
7.5 Mounting Locations for External Equipment
Three locations are provided for mounting external user equipment on the robot arm. The first
location is on the J1 Harness Support (top side of the inner link), a second is on the top side of
the outer link, and a third is on the bottom side of the outer link. Each location has a set of
four tapped holes. See Figure 8-7. and Figure 8-9. for the dimensions.
NOTE: The cover on the outer link must be removed for maintenance (lub-
rication), so keep this in mind when mounting any external equipment to the
outer link cover.
For information on mounting cameras on the robot, see Installing the Camera Bracket Kit on
page 140.
7.6 Installing the Robot Solenoid Kit
This procedure describes how to mount the 24 V Robot Solenoid option on eCobra robots. The
kit is available as p/n 02853-000.
The robot has been pre-wired to accommodate a bank of two 24 VDC solenoid valves. Power
for the internal mounting is accessible via a connector mounted inside the outer link cover. See
Figure 7-10. The signals actuating the valves are directly switchable from eV+ using software
signals 3001 and 3002. Refer to the SIGNAL command in the eV+ Language Reference Guide for
additional information. ACE software can also be used.
