Connect the Cordset to the FlexArmor Module
These modules use 5 pin micro (12mm) style PCB mounted 
connectors.
Four micro caps cover the I/O connectors on both modules. Remove 
the caps and connect your cables to the appropriate ports. Keep the 
caps in place on any unused connector to maintain the IP67 rating.
Refer to publication no. 889-CP0021A-EN-P for compatible Rockwell 
Automation cables and cordsets.
A pinout diagram for the connectors is shown below.
ATTENTION
!
•
Make sure all connectors and caps are 
securely tightened to properly seal the 
connections against leaks and maintain IP67 
requirements.
•
For maximum noise immunity, input and 
output cable return wires must be properly 
terminated. When inputs and outputs are 
connected in loopback, return wires should 
be connected together.
•
I/O cable length should be less than 30 
meters.
