3.7 Feedback connections
Two feedback options are available for use with linear and rotary motors - commutating
encoder or resolver. Confirm the catalog number of your FlexDrive
ensure you are wiring the correct feedback device. There are some important considerations
when wiring the feedback device:
The feedback device wiring must be separated from power wiring.
H
Where feedback device wiring runs parallel to power cables, they must be separated by at
H
least 76mm (3 in)
Feedback device wiring must cross power wires at right angles only.
H
To prevent contact with other conductors or earths/grounds, unearthed/ungrounded ends
H
of shields must be insulated.
Some larger D-type connector shells may be obstructed by neighboring connector X3.
H
Linear motors use two separate cables (encoder and Hall). The cores of these two cables
H
will need to be wired to the appropriate pins of the 15-pin D-type mating connector
(supplied).
An encoder output signal is available on connector X7 for supplying other equipment.

encoder feedback, a technique where two encoders are used to control a single axis. The
second feedback input is derived from the master (auxiliary) encoder input on connector X9
(section 4.4.2). See the Mint help file for details.
