1. Introducció
This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of the Trimble 7-Pin Coil Cable, model ATI026047. This cable is designed for use with various Spectra Laser Machine Control Systems, including CB30, CB52, and Apache models, facilitating reliable data and power transmission between components.
Please read this manual thoroughly before using the product to ensure safe and efficient operation and to prevent damage to the cable or connected equipment.
2. Informació de seguretat
Observe the following safety guidelines to prevent injury and damage to equipment:
- Always ensure power is disconnected from all equipment before connecting or disconnecting the cable.
- Inspect the cable for any signs of damage (cuts, abrasions, bent pins) before each use. Do not use a damaged cable.
- Avoid kinking, crushing, or excessively stretching the coiled cable, as this can damage internal wiring.
- Keep connectors clean and free from dirt, moisture, and debris to ensure proper electrical contact.
- Operate equipment in accordance with all manufacturer's instructions and local safety regulations.
3. Producte acabatview
The Trimble 7-Pin Coil Cable (model ATI026047) is a robust, coiled electrical cable designed for demanding machine control environments. Its coiled design allows for flexibility and extension while minimizing excess cable length, reducing entanglement risks. It features 7-pin connectors on both ends, ensuring secure and reliable connections for power and data transfer.

4. Configuració i instal·lació
Follow these steps to properly connect the Trimble 7-Pin Coil Cable to your Spectra Laser Machine Control System components:
- Apagar: Ensure all connected devices (e.g., CB30, CB52, Apache control box, laser receiver) are powered off before making any connections.
- Inspeccioneu els connectors: Comproveu que els dos extrems del ATI026047 cable and the corresponding ports on your equipment are clean, dry, and free from damage.
- Connecta el primer extrem: Align the 7-pin connector on one end of the coil cable with the appropriate port on your first device (e.g., laser receiver). Gently push the connector in until it seats firmly.
- Connexió segura: Twist the locking collar on the cable connector clockwise until it is hand-tight. Do not overtighten.
- Connecta el segon extrem: Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the other end of the coil cable, connecting it to your second device (e.g., machine control box).
- Encaminament de cables: Route the coiled cable in a manner that avoids sharp edges, moving parts, and areas where it could be pinched or damaged. Allow sufficient slack for machine movement without excessive stretching.
- Encès: Once all connections are secure, power on your equipment according to the manufacturer's instructions.
5. Directrius de funcionament
Once the Trimble 7-Pin Coil Cable is correctly installed, it facilitates communication and power between your machine control components. No specific operational steps are required for the cable itself, as its function is passive data and power transmission. However, observe the following during operation:
- Connexions del monitor: Periodically check that the cable connections remain secure, especially in environments with vibration or movement.
- Evitar l'esforç: Ensure the coiled cable is not subjected to excessive pulling or stretching beyond its intended range of motion.
- Protecció del medi ambient: While the cable is designed for rugged use, protect connectors from direct exposure to heavy rain, mud, or extreme temperatures when possible.
6. Manteniment
Regular maintenance helps prolong the life and ensure the reliability of your Trimble 7-Pin Coil Cable:
- Neteja:
- Disconnect the cable from all devices before cleaning.
- Wipe the cable and connectors with a clean, damp drap per eliminar la brutícia, la pols i els residus.
- For stubborn grime, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Ensure connectors are completely dry before reconnecting.
- Use compressed air to clear debris from pin receptacles if necessary, avoiding direct contact with pins.
- Inspecció:
- Regularly inspect the entire length of the cable for cuts, cracks, abrasions, or signs of wear.
- Check connectors for bent, corroded, or missing pins. Ensure locking collars operate smoothly.
- If any damage is found, replace the cable immediately to prevent equipment malfunction or electrical hazards.
- Emmagatzematge:
- When not in use, store the cable in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Avoid tightly coiling or kinking the cable during storage. A loose coil is preferable.
7. Solució De Problemes
If you experience issues with your machine control system that you suspect are related to the cable, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| No communication/power to device | Connexió fluixa o inadequada | Ensure both ends of the cable are fully seated and locking collars are tightened. |
| Connexió intermitent | Damaged cable or dirty connectors | Inspect cable for damage. Clean connectors. If damage is present, replace the cable. |
| Bent or corroded pins | Physical damage or environmental exposure | Do not attempt to straighten bent pins as they may break. Replace the cable. |
| Cable not extending/retracting properly | Internal damage to coil or excessive strain | Avoid overstretching. If the coil loses elasticity, the cable may need replacement. |
If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact Trimble support or your authorized dealer for further assistance.
