Encoder

The MDrive23 is available with a factory-mounted optical encoder. Available line counts are 100, 200, 250, 400, 500, 1000 or 2000. All encoders, except 1000 line, have an index mark. Encoders are avail- able in both single-end and differential configurations. Order optional Encoder Cables separately:

Single-end Cable (12"/30.5cm) ... ES-CABLE-2* Differential Cable (36"/91.5cm)... ED-CABLE-2*

*Change "2" to a "6" when ordering 2000 line encoder cable.

Linear Actuator

The MDrive23 with long life Acme Screw Linear Ac- tuator is available with the following travel/full step:

Screw F

0.002”/full step

Screw A

0.001”/full step

Screw B

0.0008333”/full step

Screw C

0.0005”/full step

Screw D

0.0004167”/full step

Screw E

0.0003125”/full step

Standard screw length is 6.0” (152.4mm) plus the mounting end thread. Custom lengths from 2.0” to 24.0” are available without mounting end thread.

Linear Actuators are Non-Captive style. Contact the factory regarding Captive Shaft or External styles.

Parameter Setup Cable and Adapter

The optional 6' (1.8m) Parameter Setup Cable Part No. MD-CC100-000 eliminates the need to wire com- munications and is recommended with first order. It connects an MDrive's 10 pin pin-header (P2) to a standard DB-25 PC Parallel/SPI port and includes built-in logic level shifting circuity to accommodate the 3.3v ports on some PCs. In addition, MDrives with C Connector require an Adapter Part No. MD-ADP- 1723C to mate the Cable to the 12 position pin and receptacle connector (P1).

Prototype Development Cable

For testing and development of MDrives with C Con- nector, the 12" (30.5cm) Prototype Development Cable plugs into the MD-ADP-1723C Adapter and has flying leads for connection to the user interface. Part No. ADP-3512-FL.
