Installation

Encoder connections

In order to ensure correct operation there are a number of checks which should be 
carried out:
•

Ensure the encoder is securely mounted to the motor as spurious operation can 
result due to the encoder slipping whilst the motor is rotating.

•

Ensure encoder connections to both the encoder and the Solutions Module 
terminals are secured, intermittent connections can result in spurious operation or 
the Solutions Module not detecting the feedback signals.

•

Ensure screen and grounding recommendations as specified in Chapter 
5.5

Encoder shield connections

on page 28, Encoder, Shield connections of this 

User guide are followed to prevent noise being induced on the encoder feedback 
signals. Noise induced on encoder feedback cables cannot only result in spurious 
operation but in extreme cases can result in encoder failure and/or damage to the 
Solutions Modules encoder input.

Encoder feedback and communications data is transmitted from an encoder as low 
voltage analogue or digital signals. Ensure that electrical noise from the drive or motor 
does not adversely affect the encoder feedback. Also refer to drive and motor 
instructions given in Chapter 4 

Electrical Installation

 in the 

Unidrive SP User Guide

, and 

that the encoder feedback wiring and shielding recommendations are followed in 
section 5.5

Encoder shield connections

on page 28.

Encoder initialisation 

Encoder initialisation will occur as follows: at drive power-up, when requested by the user 
via Pr 

3.47 

or when trips in this module (which are option module specific) are reset. 

Initialisation causes an encoder with comms to be re-initialised and auto-configuration to 
be performed if selected. After initialisation Ab.SErvo, Fd.SErvo, Fr.SErvo and SC.SErvo 
encoders will use the UVW commutations signals to give position feedback for the first 
120

°

 (electrical) of rotation when the motor is restarted.

A delay is provided during initialisation for some encoders to allow the encoder to be 
ready to provide position information after it has powered up. The delay is provided 
during initialisation because this occurs during drive power-up and after encoder power 
supply trips are reset. The delays are as follows:

The control circuits are isolated from the power circuits in the drive by basic insulation 
only, as specified in IEC60664-1. The installer must ensure that the external control 
circuits are insulated from human contact by at least one layer of insulation rated for use 
at the AC supply voltage.
If the control circuits are to be connected to other circuits classified as Safety Extra Low 
Voltage (SELV) (e.g. to a personal computer) an additional isolating barrier must be 
included in order to maintain the SELV classification.
