7.2 Installation of “HRC-03-086003”
PIN assignment of the power supply line:
PIN Color Function Explanation
1White Analog output 0 to 10 V output
2Brown Reserve
3Green Signal 2
4Yellow Special function Button on gripper housing
5Gray + 24 V DC + 24 V DC supply voltage
6Pink Move command Input, control input, inner move command
7Blue Move command Input, control input, outer move command
8Red GND 0 V DC supply voltage
The following steps must be carried out for commissioning or installing the “HRC-03-086003” gripper:
►Connect the gripper to the voltage supply.
►Secure the voltage supply.
ÖA voltage supply between PIN 5 and PIN 8 is necessary for operation.
ÖA jaw movement is triggered by a voltage level between PIN 7 or PIN 6.
Control logic:
Movement PIN 7 (open) PIN 6 (close)
Gripper in rest mode 0 0
Open gripper 1 0
Close gripper 0 1
A movement in the desired direction occurs when the corresponding signal is at a high level. After a high level is
detected, the gripper movement occurs until the gripping process ends.
It is important to ensure that, after a movement has taken place, the corresponding signal is reset.
This must happen before a signal is carried out in the opposite direction.
A pause of 10 ms must be maintained between withdrawing the signal and the next command.
Freedrive (soft-switching the robot)
For manual soft-switching of the robot, the gripper is equipped
with a “freedrive button” (see gure on the right).
The following work steps must be observed for manually teach-
ing-in the robot position:
►Press the freedrive button to soft-switch the robot.
ÖThe robot can be moved manually.
ÖMove the robot with the gripper to the desired
position.
►Release the freedrive button .
ÖThe robot and gripper stop at their position.
ÖFor “teaching” or activating the position of the robot and
gripper in the control system, please observe the information
provided by the robot manufacturer.
ÖThe information provided by the robot manufacturer includes
details about activation.
