SD/SDV-Series Pinout Interface

This section describes the electrical pinout of the SD/SDV-Series tool connectors.

Two connectors are used:

  • 8-pin M12 connector for communication, control, and safety signals

  • 4-pin M12 connector for motor power (48V)

8-Pin M12 Connector (Communication & Safety)

The 8-pin connector provides power for the tool electronics, RS485 communication, and safety signals.

Note

The 24V supply for tool electronics (Pin 2 / Pin 7) is internally derived from the 48V motor supply.

The 24V supply on Pin 1 / Pin 6 is provided externally by the robot or PLC via the SpinBridge safety interface and supplied directly to the tool.

Important

The communication cable must be shielded and used as specified.

The cable shield contributes to EMC performance and signal stability.

4-Pin M12 Connector (Motor Power)

The 4-pin connector provides power for the screwdriver motor.
