  2. “Plate Presence” Cable (8-Pin M12)

  3. “Robot Communication” Cable (Yellow Ethernet)

  4. Kawasaki X3A Cable

The robot can be mounted in two different orientations depending on the rack configuration.

  • The “Standard” configuration places the back of the robot (indicated by the electrical connection ports) away from the robot opening as shown in Figure 114. This configuration is used if a Rack 1 position is ever needed.

  • The “Alternate” configuration places the back of the robot away from Rack 5 as shown in Figure 115. This is used if the system configuration ever includes a Rack 3 location.

The orientation of the robot will only slightly change the wire routing path of the robot as shown by the yellow lines in the figures below.
