Encoder Connection
This section describes the multi-winding drive unit’s encoder signal (CN21) names, functions, and connection
examples.
3.7.1
Encoder Signal (CN21) Names and Functions
The following table shows the names and functions of encoder signals (CN21).
∗
These do not need to be connected for an incremental encoder.
3.7.2
Encoder Connection Examples
The following diagrams show connection examples of the encoder, the multi-winding drive unit, and the host
controller.
(1) Incremental Encoder
∗1.
The pin arrangement for wiring connectors varies in accordance with the servomotor that is used.
∗2.
To prevent the influence of external noise, we recommend you connect a ferrite core on the motor end of the encoder
cable using two turns.
∗3.
: represents shielded twisted-pair wires.
