CAUTION
1. The robot has been tested according to international IEC standards for
ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Disturbing signals with levels higher
than those defined in the specific IEC standards can cause unexpected
behaviors from the robot. Very high signal levels or excessive exposure can
damage the robot permanently. EMC problems are found to happen usually
in welding processes and are normally prompted by error messages in the
log. Universal Robots cannot be held responsible for any damages caused by
EMC problems.
2. I/O cables going from the Control Box to other machinery and factory
equipment may not be longer than 30m, unless additional tests are
performed.
4.4. Controller I/O
You can use the I/O inside the Control Box for a wide range of equipment including pneumatic
relays, PLCs and emergency stop buttons.
The illustration below shows the layout of electrical interface groups inside the Control Box.

You can use the horizontal Digital Inputs block (DI8-DI11), illustrated below, for quadrature
encoding Conveyor Tracking (see 4.4.1. Common specifications for all digital I/Oon the facing
page) for these types of input.
The meaning of the color schemes listed below must be observed and maintained.
Yellow with red text Dedicated safety signals
Yellow with black text Configurable for safety
Gray with black text General purpose digital I/O
Green with black text General purpose analog I/O
In the GUI, you can set up configurable I/O as either safety-related I/O or general purpose I/O (see
part).
