Note: To ensure normal product operation, place A1Z in a dry, well-ventilated environment with no obstacles or hazardous objects nearby.
2. Install the Arm Body
Use G-clamps to fix the robotic arm to a stable tabletop
- Select a suitable mounting platform. Ensure the platform is flat, stable, and capable of bearing the maximum load during operation.
- Clean the mounting surface and remove debris, dust, or other materials that may affect installation stability. Ensure close contact between the mounting base plate and the platform.
Install and secure the robotic arm as follows:
- Place the G-clamp adapter plate on the selected platform or tabletop and ensure it is positioned properly for fastening.
- Secure the adapter plate with the G-clamps.
3. Connect the Cables
A1Z connection diagram
Connect the cables as follows:
- Communication: connect the cable attached to the robotic arm to the adapter box, connect the cable attached to the CAN box to the adapter box, and connect the USB cable between the CAN box and the host computer.
- Power: connect the cable attached to the power adapter to the adapter box, and connect the switched AC cable between the power adapter and the power source.
A1Z CAN box diagram
The original shorting wire connects a 120Ω termination resistor between pins ⑤ and ⑥ shown in the diagram, adding CAN termination to the CAN bus.
Note: If the original shorting wire is removed, connect one 120Ω termination resistor in parallel at each far end of the bus to ensure stable CAN communication.
