Compatibility Information
The CAT-3 version of the PA-4, P/N 01044-000, was developed primarily to support the
Category 3 robot systems. You can identify this new version of the PA-4 from earlier
versions in two ways:
• the product ID label with the new part number 01044-000, located on the right side
of the chassis. See
Figure 1-2
.
• on the lower-right side of the PA-4 front panel, there are additional labels for
diagnostic LEDs. See
Figure 6-1 on page 50
.
This new PA-4 is also backwards-compatible with earlier Adept systems, such as Adept
Cobra and Adept XL robots. See
Table 1-2 on page 12
.
NOTE:
The CAT-3 version of the PA-4 in AdeptSix robot systems must
use the sMAI (smart Multi-Axis Interface) or MAI-2 module; it is not
compatible with the earlier MAI-1 module.
