ground.
Caution
Use proper cabling management. Make sure to leave enough slack in the cabling to allow movement of the gripper
along all axes without pulling out the connectors. Always protect the controller side (robot side) connector of the cable
with a strain relief cable clamp.
The figure below illustrates the Hand-E Gripper pigtail connector from the coupling (GRP-CPL-062 or AGC-CPL-XXX-002), the
device cable on the robot side (CBL-COM-2065-10-HF) and their associated pinout.
