jackscrews. You must fasten the motor shield (braid) to the bottom of the drive,
using the included saddle clamp. (GV6K-H20/H40: R-clamp on heatsink.) The
shield must not make contact with other conductors, as this will cause common
mode drive generated PWM current to flow where not expected.
If you use the GEM-VM50 or other screw terminal cable breakout device, be sure
to properly enclose all exposed conductors to avoid contamination and to reduce
the risk of electrostatic discharge. Limit switches and other I/O must utilize high
quality shielded cabling (85% braid coverage minimum), which must be RF earth
bonded as shown in the
