NOTE: The system integrator must add adequate strain relief for the
Motor Power cable connectors at the amplifier modules.
1. Connect the Motor Power cable to the two matching connectors on the amplifier
modules in the following order.
a. Install the plug labeled B+ Amp #1 in the connector marked "Motor Power
Output" on Module 1.
b. Install the plug labeled B+ Amp #2 in the connector marked "Motor Power
Output" on Module 2.
2. Pull gently on the connector bodies to ensure they are securely latched.
WARNING: Verify that all connectors are secure and fully inserted.
Failure to do this could cause unexpected robot motion.

Installing Signal Cables: Robot to MV Controller
The 8-meter cable between the robot and the VJI module in the Adept MV controller is
called the Arm Signal cable. It is permanently attached at the robot, and the controller end
has a 50-pin D-sub connector. See Figure 2-10
1. Connect the 50-pin D-sub connector to the Arm Signal connector (lower) on the
VJI module. See Figure 2-12.
2. Tighten the two captive screws securely.
