Connecting Sensor Bar to Control Station (standalone or with other devices)
Cables used to connect the IQ Easy Sensor Bar to the Control Station have M12
connectors on both ends. Cables are available in a variety of lengths with straight or
right angle connectors at the IQ Easy device end (see Parts & Accessories section).
Connection is made at the Control Station to one of the six connectors labeled
DEV1 thru DEV6.
Place the appropriate M12 cable connector against the connector on the device or
control station and rotate the connector until the keyed connection aligns. Press the
connectors together and turn the knurled coupling nut clockwise to thread it on.
Finger-tighten the coupling nut until the connector is fully seated. Route cable away
from any moving machine parts and secure the cable to prevent damage.
Alternate cables to connect the IQ Easy Neutralizer Bar to the Control Station are
available. These cables are available with a straight or right angle connector at the
IQ Easy device end and an RJ-45 connector at the Control Station end (see Parts
& Accessories section). Connection is made at the Control Station to one of the ten
connectors labeled 1 thru 10 POWER & COMM.
