4.10 Fabricating External I/O Signal Cable
When fabricating an external I/O signal cable, observe the following matters.
a.) Connectors INPUT and OUTPUT for the TSL3000E/TSL3100E robot controller
should be either the connectors attached to the controller or equivalent
connectors.
The equivalent of other makers (D-sub connectors) can also be used.
Connector name
Type of connector
Maker
INPUT
XM3A–3721 (plug type connector)
XM2S–3711 (connector cover)
OMRON
OUTPUT
XM3A–2521 (plug type connector)
XM2S–2511 (connector cover)
b.) Select the cables which meet the following specifications.
• Core wires : 0.18 mm
2
to 0.32 mm
2
twisted wires
• Cable outer diameter : Max. 13 mm (INPUT), 11 mm (OUTPUT)
• Shield : Batch braided shield
• Cable length : 30 m or less
NEVER use cables which do not conform to the specifications. Otherwise,
short-circuit or cable melting due to overheated cable core may be caused.
Additionally, the robot may work improperly due to noise.
c.) The INPUT and OUTPUT connectors are of a solder cup type which joins
cables by soldering. For how to join cables to connectors and how to shield
cables, see Appendix 2.
* Cables with their single side soldered to the connector (TSL3000E/TSL3100E:
INPUT/OUTPUT cables) are provided optionally. (We can advise of the cable
length.) Contact our after-sale service agent in your territory.
