2.1. Input Power Connections
The XC2 has two DC input power connectors. One connector is for control power and the other connector is
for motor power. For a full list of electrical specifications, refer to
DANGER
: The 0V supply inputs must be connected to the protective ground at the external
power supply for your safety and to prevent damage to the equipment.
2.1.1. Control Supply Connector
The Control Supply input supplies power to the communications and logic circuitry of the XC2 . The
+24V
input is connected to an internal fuse. Refer to
for the internal fuse value and part number.
For CE compliance, Aerotech recommends that you add a ferrite filter as close as possible to the XC2.
