Prohibited Handling of Cables
When designing an application system using IAI’s actuators and controllers, incorrect wiring or connection of
each cable may cause unexpected problems such as a disconnected cable or poor contact, or even a runaway
system. This section explains prohibited handling of cables. Read the information carefully to connect the
cables properly.
