3.
Form a drip loop in the cable to keep liquids away from the connectors.
4.
Verify the continuity and functionality of the thermal switch signals, TS+ and TS-.
These signals are transmitted through the feedback cable that connects the motor to its
controlling drive.
Change Connector Orientation
You can rotate the circular DIN connector housings up to 180°.
Follow these steps to rotate the DIN connectors.
1.
Mount and fully seat a mating cable on the connector.
2.
Grasp the connector and the cable plug by their housings and slowly rotate them to the
outside of the motor.
If necessary, repeat these steps for the other connector (feedback or power/brake).
ATTENTION:
Make sure cables are installed and restrained to prevent uneven tension or
flexing at the cable connectors. Excessive and uneven lateral force at the cable
connectors may result in the connector’s environmental seal opening and closing as the
cable flexes.
Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to the linear thruster
motor and its components.
ATTENTION:
Only apply force to the connectors; do not apply force to the cable. Do
not use tools (for example, pliers and vise-grips) to assist with the rotation of the
connector.
Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in personal injury or damage
to equipment.
