NOTE: The 24 VDC cable is not supplied with the system, but is available in the
optional Power Cable kit, see Table 3-1.

Creating 24 VDC Cable

1. Locate the connector and pins from Table 3-4.

2. Use 14-16 AWG wire to create the 24 VDC cable. Select the wire length to safely reach

from the user-supplied 24 VDC power supply to the robot base.

NOTE: You also must create a separate 24 VDC cable for the SmartController. That
cable uses a different style of connector. For details, see the

Adept SmartController

User's Guide

.

3. Crimp the pins onto the wires using the crimping tool recommended in Table 3-4.

4. Insert the pins into the connector. Confirm that the 24 V and ground wires are in the

correct terminals in the plug.

5. Prepare the opposite end of the cable for connection to your user-supplied 24 VDC

power supply.

Installing 24 VDC Robot Cable

1. Connect one end of the shielded 24 VDC cable to your user-supplied 24 VDC power

supply. See the following figure. The cable shield should be connected to frame ground
on the power supply. Do not turn on the 24 VDC power until instructed to do so in
Turning on Power and Starting Adept ACE on page 53.
