Gocator 3x00 Cordsets

G3 sensors use two types of cordsets.

When connecting cordset connectors to the sensor's connectors, do not exceed a torque of 2 Nm (18 in-lbs). Ensure that you properly secure the cordset cabling to avoid stress loading on the sensor connectors.

The Power & Ethernet cordset provides power. It is also used for sensor communication via 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet with a standard RJ45 connector. The Master version of the Power & Ethernet cordset provides direct connection between the sensor and a Master network controller (excluding Master 100); for more information, see Master Network Controllers.

The I/O cordset provides digital I/O connections, an encoder interface, RS-485 serial connection, and an analog output.

If you use a Master 100 with a sensor, you must use the latest version of the Master 100 with a metal-shielded Master Power Port and a Power & Ethernet cordset with a metal-shielded Power/Sync RJ45 plug.

Cordsets are available with two types of cabling: standard and high flex. Use the high flex versions in applications where a tighter bend in the cordset is required, especially when the cordset must bend repeatedly. For more information, see Cordset Bend Radius Limits.

The maximum cordset length is 60 m. For pinout details, see Gocator I/O Connector and Gocator Power/LAN Connector.

See Accessories for cordset lengths and part numbers. Contact LMI for information on creating cordsets with customized lengths and connector orientations.
