AXlink Wiring Considerations
If a local power supply is used, the free GND wire of the GND pair should be connected as shown
in FIG. 6.
Using Ground Shielding
Under normal circumstances ground shielding should not be necessary. Only use ground shielding
when experiencing noise in the line. The shield connection should
only
be tied on one end - the
Master side.

Tying both ends can result in a ground loop. Tie the ground shield connection to the Master side
only.
