When constructing the application system, make sure to lay out each cable and connect them correctly
otherwise it may cause unexpected troubles such as cable breakage or contact failure. Described
below are the things that are prohibited to be done regarding the treatment of cables.
• Do not attempt to cut and extend the cable, or short-circuit or re-joint it.
• Do not apply the robot cable to the moving part. The actuator cable is a robot cable with its length
approximately 2m.
[For the bending radius, refer to 1.4 Motor • Encoder Cables]
• Do not bend the cable in the area from the connector tip inward to 150mm on both ends.
Standard cable : CB-CA-MPAƑƑƑ
Robot cable : CB-CA-MPAƑƑƑ-RB
150mm 150mm
• Have a sufficient radius for bending to avoid stress being applied to one place.

Tie them up softly.
• Do not let the cable bend, kink or twist.
• Do not pull the cable with a strong force.
• Do not let the cable receive a turning force at a single point.
