Hi can i have more then 1 IO coupling attach to 1 UR robot?
Hi Lawrence,

No because there is only 2 inputs and 2 outputs that the I/O Coupling is using completely.
What would be the use of having 2 coupling? Dual gripper setup?

Thanks!

Will this work with a CB robot and the previous generation 2F gripper?
Hi Wiley,

It is made for UR CB robots. The robot's PolyScope version must be 3.10 and later in order to install the URCap.
The gripper firmware needs to be GC3-1.6.8 or latest.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info.

I'm working with a CB2 robot (so only PolyScope 1.8), so the URCap wouldn't be an option for me. However I'm guessing the limitation to four presets means it's just controlled by setting the two digital outputs on the tool I/O to binary 0, 1, 2 or 3, which could be reproduced fairly easily without any extra URCap or driver.

Is this right? Would it be possible to do something like this and use the coupling without the URCap?
