Connect the UMI-7774/72 to the NI 73xx motion controller by connecting one end of the SHC68-C68-S cable to the 68-pin motion I/O connector on the motion controller and the other end to the 68-pin motion I/O connector on the UMI-7774/72. Refer to Figure 2 for a connection diagram.
UMI-7774/72. Mounting the UMI-7774/72 You can mount the UMI-7774/72 on a 35 mm DIN rail, on a panel, or in a standard 19 in. rack. The following sections include instructions for all three mounting methods. Before using any of these mounting methods, record the serial number from the back of the UMI-7774/72.
Figure 5. UMI-7774, Side View with Dimensions Mounting the UMI-7774/72 on a DIN Rail The UMI-7774/72 has one clip for mounting on a standard 35 mm DIN rail. You can order the DIN rail mounting kit (part number 778710-01) from National Instruments. Complete the following steps to mount the UMI-7774/72 on a DIN rail.
Insert one edge of the DIN rail into the deeper opening of the DIN rail clip, as shown in Figure 7. Press down firmly on the UMI-7774/72 to compress the spring until the clip locks in place on the DIN rail.

The UMI-7774/72 requires a 24 VDC power supply to operate. The UMI-7774/72 has a 4-position terminal block for wiring 24 VDC power and 5 to 30 VDC isolated power to the UMI-7774/72. The isolated power is used in the optical isolation output circuitry for the drive enable outputs and digital output signals.
UMI-7774/72 as an output power source for external devices. Refer to Figure 1 to locate the power input terminal block on the UMI-7774/72. Figure 13 shows the 4-position power connector. Table 1 shows the power connector terminal block pinout.
LEDs. Control Connector for Each Axis Each axis connected to the UMI-7774/72 has a 15-pin D-SUB control connector to which you wire drive command and drive enable signals. Figure 14 shows the pin locations of the control connector for each axis.
Step (CW) and Dir (CCW) The UMI-7774/72 Step (CW) and Dir (CCW) signals are used as command outputs to a stepper drive. Some stepper drives require clockwise direction (CW) and counterclockwise direction (CCW) commands rather than Step and Dir commands.

You must configure the NI 73xx motion controller Inhibit Out signals as active low for proper operation of the inhibit logic on the UMI-7774/72. This is the default setting for these signals. Figure 19 shows a simplifed connection diagram for the Enable, Fault, and Global Stop signals.
Figure 20. UMI-7774/72 Optically Isolated Digital Output Circuit and Connection to an External Device Feedback Connector for Each Axis Each axis connected to the UMI-7774/72 has a 25-pin D-SUB feedback connector to which you can wire incremental encoders, limits, and home sensors. Figure 14 shows the pin locations of the feedback connector for each axis.
The UMI-7774/72 works only with encoders that have differential line or complementary driver outputs. Refer to Figure 21 for an illustration of the encoder input interface circuit. The UMI-7774/72 supports differential inputs for Phase A, Phase B, and Index signals.
When connecting the encoder signals to the UMI-7774/72, use shielded wire of at least 24 AWG. National Instruments recommends you use cables with twisted pairs and an overall shield for improved noise immunity and signal integrity.

V– Ciso UMI-7774/72 Figure 24. UMI-7774/72 Optically Isolated Sinking Input Interface Circuit and Connection to Sourcing Output Sensor You can also connect the limit and home inputs to a high-side switch. Figure 25 shows an example of wiring the limit or home input to a high-side switch.
Limit and Home Status Indicators The UMI-7774/72 has yellow status LEDs for the forward limit, reverse limit, and home input signals. Refer to Figure 14 for the location of these LEDs. You can configure the limit and home status LEDs as active low or active high using the switch for the axis labeled LIMIT LED.
The analog inputs are pass-through signals on the UMI-7774/72. Refer to Figure 1 to help you locate the analog input connector on the UMI-7774/72. Figure 26 shows the pin locations for the Analog Input connector. Table 7 shows the corresponding signals for each pin.
All of the trigger inputs on the UMI-7774/72 are sinking inputs and are optically isolated. You can wire the trigger input to a sourcing output device such as a PNP sensor, as shown in Figure 24, or to a high-side switch as shown in Figure 28.
The 8 bits from the first port on the motion controller (Port 1: bits 0–7) become sinking inputs on the UMI-7774/72, and the 8 bits from the second port of the motion controller (Port 2: bits 0–7) become sourcing outputs on the UMI-7774/72.

Use this protection method if you connect any of the Enable outputs or general-purpose digital outputs on the UMI-7774/72 to an inductive load. Refer to Figure 29 for an illustration of the interface circuit for a general-purpose digital output that is connected to an external device with a flyback diode.
When you use torque mode, you can set all of the control gains with the National Instruments motion controller software. Using torque mode on the drive also reduces noise and enables you to achieve high position repeatability in the motion system.
