Hardware Manual
Chapter 2: Installation and Configuration
The sections in this chapter include details on how to set up the electrical and safety components of
your system. Obey all safety warnings, including those in
2.1. Input Power Connections
The controller has one DC input power connector for control power. For a full list of electrical
specifications, refer to
2.1.1. Control Supply Connector
DANGER: Shock and Fire Hazard
Electrical wiring must be designed and installed in accordance with local electrical
safety regulations to prevent the risk of fire and electrical shock.
The Control Supply input supplies power to the communications and logic circuitry of the drive. The
+24V input is connected to an internal fuse. For an isolated DC supply, connect 0V to protective
ground at the supply. Use twisted pair wiring to minimize radiated noise emissions (refer to
1).
