Fabricating External I/O Signal Cable

When fabricating an external I/O signal cable, observe the following matters.
a. Connectors CN5 and CN6 for the TS2000/TS2100 robot controller should be
either the connectors attached to the controller or equivalent connectors.
For CN12, prepare the following connector.
The equivalent of other makers (D-SUB connectors) can also be used.
Connector name
CN5
CN6
CN12
b. Select the cables which meet the following specifications.
• Core wires
• Cable outer diameter
• Shield
• Cable length
NEVER use cables which do not conform to the specifications. Otherwise,
short-circuit or cable melting due to overheated cable core may be caused.
Additionally, the robot may work improperly due to noise.
c. The CN5, CN6 and CN12 connectors are of a solder cup type which joints
cables by soldering. For how to joint cables to connectors and how to shield
cables, see Section 12.
