Installation and Configuration Soloist CP
2.1.4. Minimizing Conducted, Radiated, and System Noise
The Soloist CP generates conducted (AC line) and radiated noise. Conducted emissions are minimized by
using line filters and should be located as close to the drive as possible for maximum effectiveness. User
connections to the product must be made using shielded cables with metal D-style connectors and back
shells. The shield of the cables must be connected to the metal back shell in order for the product to conform
to radiated emission standards.The Soloist CP is a component designed to be integrated with other
electronics. EMC testing must be conducted on the final product configuration.
Ferrite beads can be used on the motor leads to reduce the effects of PWM noise.

Aerotech's UFM-ST AC line filter and isolation transformers connected to the motor supply AC input are also
effective in reducing PWM generated noise and improving performance (refer to
Section 2.1.3. ).
