6. Connection with Controllers
y When fixing the cable, provide a moderate slack and do not tension it too tight.
y Separate the I/O lines and communication lines from the power/drive lines. Do not bundle them together in the
duct.
y Take note of the following precautions when using a cable track:
y Do not let the cable get tangled or kinked in a cable track or flexible tube. When bundling the cable, keep a
certain degree of flexibility (so that the cable will not become too taut when bent).
y Do not cause the cables to occupy more than 60% of the space in the cable track.
Warning:
Ɣ When connecting or disconnecting any cable, be sure to turn off the controller power first. If
a cable is connected or disconnected while the power is still supplied, the actuator may
malfunction and a serious injury or equipment damage may result.
Ɣ Be sure to confirm that all connectors are firmly in place, because any loose connector may
cause the actuator to malfunction and create a dangerous situation.
Do not use a spiral tube where
the cable flexes frequently.
