Addressing Your Issue:
What is the end use of this? Is it an industrial application or a school project?
I have no idea what your Cobot is or what its interface looks like.
The best part is that you want us to tell you how to wire something we cannot see
or for which we do not have the appropriate documentation. The "Other Burning
Questions" can be answered after we know what we are working with, or we can only guess.
You tell us you have an Arduino (which one?) that senses something with SONAR.
It sends a signal (what are the parameters of this signal: contact, voltage, serial
bit stream, etc.?) to a 24V Cobot. If you are in the US and use a plug-in supply,
we could assume 120V AC, or maybe 12V DC out of the supply, etc.
You can spend weeks spinning your wheels, or you might get lucky and solve your
problem quickly. To avoid unnecessary delays, it is crucial to provide an annotated
schematic of your circuit as you have it wired, showing all connections including
power, ground, and power supplies.
Why Detailed Information Matters:
Annotated Schematics: These are essential because they show exactly how your circuit is set up. Without them, it's difficult for anyone to understand what you’ve done, which makes troubleshooting nearly impossible. Fritzing diagrams or unclear pictures are not enough.
Technical Information: Many modules look similar and may even have the same name, but they can function differently. This is why we always ask for links to detailed technical information—not just sales pages like those on Amazon, which often lack the specifics we need.
Post your Software Without that we do not have a clue as to how it is expected to operate. Be sure to use code tags.
Show All Connections: It’s important to include every connection, especially power, ground and power sources in your schematic. Missing these details makes it hard to determine if a setup issue might be causing your problem.
My Process:
When I see a question, I spend a moment assessing it. If it’s missing critical information, I might ask for it. However, if it's repeatedly lacking important details, I may assume the questioner is not serious and move on to another query.
What You Need to Consider:
We don’t know your skill level or what resources you have available. If you’re missing key technical details or seem unprepared, it may indicate that you need to spend more time learning the basics before starting your project.
Providing the right information upfront will help you get the best possible assistance and avoid the frustration of running into dead ends. Let us help you by sharing what you have clearly and completely!
