3.6 Cable Connections from Robot to SmartController
The following cables are shipped in the cable/accessories box:
l
Locate the IEEE 1394 cable (length 4.5 M)
l For an AIB system, locate the XSYS cable
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, as shown in 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 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
XSYSTEM into the old XSLV. Connect the XSYSTEM end to the eAIB, and the XSLV end
to the old XSYS cable.
