In general all grippers are controlled via a DIO module on the DIN rail. Normally a single DIO module is supplied with the modular control electronics for e.g. igus robolink arms or igus gantries.

Digital Outputs

  • Connect the supply pin to 24V power supply
  • The supply is forwarded to one of the outputs pins via reed relays
  • Connect a valve or another component to the output pin
  • Connect the component to GND to close the electrical circuit
  • See the example with the lamp on output 5 on the left.
  • In CPRog:
    • Reset and Enable the robot
    • Set DOut 25 to true to switch on the lamp
