Gocator I/O Connector

The Gocator I/O connector is a 19 pin, M16 style connector that provides encoder, digital input, digital outputs, serial output, and analog output signals.

This connector is rated IP67 only when a cable is connected or when a protective cap is used.

Most G2 and all G3 and G200 sensors shipped on or after July 18, 2022, no longer support analog output. G1 sensors and vertical G2 sensors will continue to support analog output. For more information, see Analog Support.

This section defines the electrical specifications for I/O connector pins, organized by function.
