After that, connect the emergency stop signal of the "Mini I/O cable" connected to COBOTTA and the emergency stop signal of the "Mini I/O cable" connected to the RC8 controller. Make sure that both robots stop when you press the emergency stop switch of either the master robot or the slave robot.

The connecting method of I/O cables differs for each model.

4

Connect the protective stop signals to the interlock device of the safety fence from the connector connected to the RC8 controller.

Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet connector (for COBOTTA communication) of COBOTTA.

6

Connect the other side of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet connector on the side of the RC8 controller.
