9.5 User Connectors
User Electrical and DeviceNet
On the back of the upright robot's Joint 1 cover and the inverted robot's base, the user elec-
trical, IO Blox, and DeviceNet connectors are filled with removable plugs at the factory. See Fig-
ure 9-12. If you use any of these connectors, you must provide a seal (see note below) at the
connection to prevent moisture from entering the robot.
NOTE: The IO Blox device is not available with the eCobra Lite. The DeviceNet
connector requires the optional SmartController EX motion controller.
NOTE: The user electrical connector (DB-25) and the IO Blox connector (DB-9)
require a gel seal gasket to maintain an adequate seal. The gaskets are supplied
in the accessory kit.
