Installation
Note
The motor ground wire and shields must be run all the way back to the amplifier terminal and must not be connected to any other conductor, shield or ground.
Motor Feedback Wiring
Encoder feedback connections are made with the CFCS cable. This cable has an MS style connector on the motor end and a
For A, A, B, B and Z, Z pairs, the CFCS cable uses low capacitance (~10 pf/ft) wire to get a characteristic impedance of 120 ohms. This impedance match is important to minimize signal loss and ringing.

Motor Brake Wiring
Motors equipped with brakes have a
You must provide a DC power supply rated at +24 VDC with a 2 amp minimum current capacity for the brake. If you use this voltage source to power other accessories such as I/O or more than one brake, you must increase its current capability.
