ECI-44 External Connector Interface

The ECI-44 allows access to all command and input and output signals on the MDS drive module. The ECI-44 should be mounted close to the drive module and away from any high voltage wiring. The ECI-44 comes complete with the hardware necessary for mounting to most DIN rail mounting tracks.

Figure 118: Dimensions of ECI-44

Note

Shield connection points are connected to the shell of the 44-pin “D” connector on the ECI-44.

Use tie wraps to provide a strain relief and a ground connection at the shield connection points.

If you do not wish to use the DIN rail mounting hardware, the ECI-44 can be disassembled and the mounting clips removed. The ECI-44 wire range is #18 to 24 AWG stranded insulated wire.

Note

Wiring should be done with consideration for future troubleshooting and repair. All wiring should be either color coded and/or tagged with industrial wire tabs. Low voltage wiring should be routed away from high voltage wiring.
