Chapter 3: System Installation
l
For an eAIB system, locate the eAIB XSYS cable or eAIB XSLV Adapter cable, which can
be used with an existing XSYS cable.
Install one end of the IEEE 1394 cable into the SmartServo port 1.1 connector on the
SmartController, and the other end into a SmartServo connector on the AIB or eAIB interface
panel. See Figure 3-1.
AIB only:
l
Install the XSYS cable between the robot interface panel XSLV safety interlock connector
and XSYS connector on the SmartController, and tighten the latching screws.
eAIB only:
l
For a new SmartController system with an eAIB, the system will be supplied with a 15
ft (4.5 m) cable with connectors for XSYS (DB9) on one end and XSYSTEM (DB44) on
the other. Connect the XSYSTEM end to the eAIB, and the XSYS end to the
SmartController.
l
For a field upgrade from an old AIB, if you already have the old XSYS (DB9-DB9) cable
routed and all you want to do is adapt your new eAIB to plug into the old cable, use the
eAIB XSLV Adapter cable. This is a 1 ft (250 mm) long adapter that essentially turns the
XSYSTEM into the old XSLV connector. Connect the XSYSTEM end to the eAIB, and the
XSLV end to the old XSYS cable.

Customer-Supplied Power Supply
24 VDC (± 10%), 150 W (6 A)
(21.6 V < V
in
< 26.4 V)
Circuit Protection
a
Output must be less than 300 W peak
or
8 Amp in-line fuse
Power Cabling
1.5 – 1.85 mm² (16-14 AWG)
Shield Termination
Braided shield connected to frame ground
terminal at both ends of cable. See Figure
3-2.
a
User-supplied 24 V power supply must incorporate overload protection to limit peak
power to less than 300 W, or 8 A in-line fuse protection must be added to the 24 V
power source. (In case of multiple robots on a common 24 V supply, each robot must
be fused individually.)
NOTE: Fuse information is located on the AIB/eAIB electronics.
The power requirements for the user-supplied power supply will vary depending on the
configuration of the robot and connected devices. Adept recommends a 24 V, 6 A power
supply to allow for startup current draw and load from connected user devices, such as
