PGE-2 Gripper User Manual I/O Control The I/O mode is a common control method in industry. The grippers will monitor the pin states of Input 1 and Input 2 (0V and high resistance states). For these two pins, there will be four logic states: 00,01,10,11. You can control this gripper through changing the states of Input 1 and Input 2, as shown in Table 4.1. Table 4.
PGE-2 Gripper User Manual 24 V, Output 2, Output 1, GND. Refer to Table 4.3 for specific line sequence and color. The gripper’s Output pin should be connected to the Controller’s Input pin. And the gripper’s Input pin should be connected to the Controller’s Output pin. Table 4.
