NI 9502 to AKM Cable
The NI 9502 to AKM Cable kit connects an NI 9502 C Series brushless servo motor drive module to an
NI AKM servo motor available from National Instruments. The kit consists of two cables, one for motor
power and one for Hall Effect sensor and encoder feedback, with motor connectors on one end and
pigtail connectors to the NI 9502 C Series module and a separate encoder module on the other end. The
required cable connections differ depending on the NI 9502 commutation mode. Refer to the
Connecting and Using the NI 9502 in Trapezoidal Commutation Mode
NI 9502 in Field Oriented Control Commutation Mode
section for cable information.
