Installation and Configuration
Soloist HPe 10/20/30
Chapter 2: Installation and Configuration
2.1. Power Connections
The Soloist HPe 10/20/30 has two AC input connectors; one for control power and a second for motor power.
For a complete list of electrical specifications, refer to
N O T E :
The machine integrator, OEM or end user is responsible for meeting the final protective ground-
ing requirements of the system.
2.1.1. Control Supply Connections (TB101)
N O T E :
This product requires two power supply connections. The Motor Supply and Control Supply
must both be connected for proper operation.
The control power supply input allows the Soloist HPe 10/20/30 to maintain communications if the motor
power is removed, such as in an Emergency Stop condition. The control power supply requires a minimum of
85 VAC input to operate properly. The AC1 input is internally fused. The AC2 input is not internally fused but
can be connected to a voltage source other than Neutral if an external 2 A time-delay fuse is used.
Although the control power supply contains an internal filter, an additional external filter located as close as
possible to the Soloist HPe 10/20/30 may be required for CE compliance (Aerotech recommends Schaffner
FN2080 or Aerotech UFM-ST).
