Hiperface-to-DSL Feedback Converter Kit

Install the Converter Kit

Follow these steps to install the converter kit.

1.

Remove the cover and route signal wires to the proper terminals leaving service loops for 
each connection.

See 

Connector Data

 on  

page 3

 for the 10-pin terminal pinout.

2.

Tighten terminal screws to achieve 0.25 N•m (2.2 lb•in), maximum torque.

3.

Apply the shield clamp to the 12 mm (0.5 in.) of exposed cable shield to achieve a high-
frequency bond between the shield braid and clamp.

4.

Attach the tie wrap (supplied with the kit) for stress relief.

5.

Tighten clamp screws to achieve 0.3 N•m (2.6 lb•in) maximum torque.

6.

Replace the cover and install cover screws.

Tighten cover screws to achieve 0.3 N•m (2.6 lb•in) maximum torque.

7.

Insert the two-pin DSL connector into the drive connector and attach the mounting 
bracket in one of three mounting positions.

– Mounting position depends on the drive family. 

– Mounting-hole protective cover on the drive depends on the drive family.

See 

Additional Resources

 on  

page 4

 for access to the user manual for your servo drive.

8.

Tighten mounting screws to achieve 0.4 N•m (3.5 lb•in) maximum torque.

IMPORTANT

The purpose of the shield clamp is to provide a proper ground and improve system 
performance. To achieve this, clamping the exposed braid under the shield clamp is 
critical.
