Ensure continuity of all shields
Maximise the distance between the encoder and motor cables
Provide appropriate strain relief at the readhead and interface
The ACi should be contained within a shielded enclosure
Ensure suitable clamping to retain interboard connector to the mating connector
Mounting
The ACi can be mounted to customers' system using two M3 screws or two M2.5 screws for through mounting.
