Installing the Optional GIO Board
Brooks sells a digital IO board that provides 12 inputs and 8 outputs as an option. This board may
be installed either in the Z column of the robot for standalone PF400 robots, or in the Linear Axis
extrusion for robots with the Linear Axis option.
This board is provided with a 150 mm pigtail harness to a 25-pin Dsub connector. The board is
attached with (4) M3 X 10 mm SHCS and the 25-pin Dsub is attached with standard D-sub 4-40
mounting standoffs.
This board is typically installed at the factory, but can be installed in the field for robots shipped after
July 2012 which have the appropriate mounting holes.
