�
When fixing the cable, provide a moderate slack and do not tension it too tight.
�
Separate the I/O and communication lines from the power and drive lines. Do not wire them together in the
same duct.
�
If a cable track is used, use a robot cable and prevent the cable from getting tangled or kinked in the cable
track or flexible tube. Also make sure the cable retains a certain degree of flexibility (so that the cable will not
become too taut when bent).
[For the bending radius, refer to “9. Motor • Encoder Cable”.]
�
Do not cause the cables to occupy more than 60% of the space in the cable track.
Warning:
�
Always turn off the controller power before connecting/disconnecting cables. If cables are connected/
disconnected while the power is still supplied, the actuator may malfunction and serious injury or equipment
damage may occur.
�
Loose connectors may cause the actuator to malfunction and create a dangerous situation.
Be sure to confirm that all connectors are securely connected.
Do not use spiral tube in any
position where cables are bent
frequently.
