Feedback Specifications
The Kinetix 5700 drives accept motor feedback signals from Stegmann
Hiperface digital-servo-link (DSL) encoders on the motor feedback (MF)
connector and Hiperface, incremental, and EnDat encoders on the universal
feedback (UFB) connector.
The MF and UFB connectors can be used in the following applications:
• Motor feedback
• Auxiliary feedback-only axis
• Dual-loop control applications
Encoder Feedback Supported on the DSL Feedback Connector
The Kinetix 5700 drives support Kinetix VP motors with Stegmann Hiperface
digital-servo-link (DSL) encoders by using the 2-pin (MF) feedback
connector.
Other Allen-Bradley motors and actuators with Stegmann Hiperface single-
turn or multi-turn high-resolution absolute encoders are also accepted.
However, to connect these devices to the MF connector, you must also use the
2198-H2DCK Hiperface-to-DSL (series B or later) converter kit for
Hiperface-to-DSL feedback conversion. Alternatively, you can use the
universal (UFB) feedback connector for those motors and actuators.
Encoder Feedback Supported on the UFB Feedback Connector
The Kinetix 5700 drives also support multiple types of feedback devices by
using the 15-pin (UFB) universal feedback connector and sharing connector
pins in many cases. Use the 2198-K57CK-D15M universal feedback connector
kit for terminating the feedback conductors.

IMPORTANT
Auto-configuration in the Logix Designer application of intelligent absolute,
high-resolution encoders, incremental, and EnDat encoders is possible with
only Allen-Bradley motors.
