Installing Cable Assemblies
Connecting the Motor Control
Cable
Motor control cables are supplied in four lengths, 6 ft
(1.8 m), 9 ft (2.7 m), 15 ft (4.6 m), and 55 ft (16.8). The
55 ft cable may be used by itself. The 6 ft, 9 ft, and 15 ft
cable must be used with the 55 ft cable.
To connect the motor cable between the control assem-
bly and the orbital dispenser, do the following:
1. Locate the receptacle on the bottom of the control
assembly that is labeled MOTOR CABLE. See F
IG.
8.
2. Connect the orbital dispenser cable (55 ft) to the
MOTOR CABLE receptacle. See F
IG. 9.
3. Check the connections to ensure the cable is con-
nected correctly.
4. Route the motor control cable and conform to the
following cable routing requirements:
• Avoid a bend radius of less than 5 in. (12.7 cm).
• Avoid pinch points.
• Avoid cable pulling or stretching.
• Keep cables from rubbing against other components
or machinery.
• If a lot of robot wrist motion is required, leave suffi-
cient cable length to allow for the motion, avoiding
any cable droops that may interfere with the machin-
ery or substrate.
• Route and secure the 7 in. motor cable to minimize
any movement. The 7 in. motor cable is not
intended to handle severe flexing motions.
• Cable ties should only be used to loosely bundle
hoses together. Do not tighten cable ties to the point
where cable movement is restricted.
CAUTION
Always make connections to the control assembly
with power turned off.
