I/O Coupling:Overview and Nomenclature
The Robotiq I/O Coupling is a robotic peripheral designed to allow a direct connection of the Robotiq Hand-E C10 Gripper to the
Universal Robots CB-Series tool flange. It discards any cable management and avoids downtime caused by cable issues.
The robot sends I/O signals to the coupling which sends Modbus RTU commands to the gripper based on four (4) possible
presets. These presets are determined by the I/O signals.
