Chapter 4: System Installation

SmartServo x2 (IEEE 1394) — for connecting the IEEE 1394 cable from the controller (Smart-
Servo 1.1) to the robot. The other robot connector can be used to connect to a second robot or
another 1394-based motion axis.

XIO (DB26, high density, female) — for user I/O signals for peripheral devices. This connector
provides 8 outputs and 12 inputs. For connector pin allocations for inputs and outputs, see
Using Digital I/O on Robot XIO Connector on page 43. That section also contains details on
how to access these I/O signals via V+/eV+.

The following connections are different on the AIB and the eAIB:

XSYSTEM (eAIB only) — includes the functions of the XPANEL and XSLV on the AIB. This
requires either the eAIB XSLV Adapter cable, to connect to the XSYS cable, or an eAIB XSYS
cable, which replaces the XSYS cable. See Cable Connections from Robot to SmartController in
the following section.

XPANEL (DB26, high density, male; AIB only) — used only with Cobra i-series robots, for
connecting the front panel and MCP circuit.

XSLV (DB-9, female; AIB only) — for connecting the supplied XSYS cable from the controller
XSYS connector.

XBELTIO (eAIB only) — adds two belt encoders, EXPIO at the back of the robot (which is not
available on an AIB), and an RS-232 interface.

RS-232 (DB-9, male; AIB only) — used only with Cobra i-series robots, for connecting a system
terminal.

Ethernet x2 (eAIB only) — these are not used with the SmartController CX, and are not
currently used with the SmartController EX.

4.7 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 (length 4.5 M).

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.

NOTE: The IEEE 1394 cable MUST be in either the 1.1 or 1.2 SmartServo port of the
SmartController. Do NOT use the 2.1 or 2.2 ports.

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
