    Hello Bill

    The position switches are terminated at the XP/XT8 connector in the IRC5. You must connect wiring at XP/XT8 to supply a 24v and wiring to connect to your I/O card. The XP/XT8 connector is shown in the IRC5 Product Manual (3HAC021313-001) circuit diagrams section. This shows the connections from the robot base to XP/XT8 connector. Use the circuit diagrams in the Product Manual of your Robot type to see the connections from the switches to the robot base.
