NOTE: The physical direction of the motor with respect to the
direction input will depend upon the connection of the motor
windings. To switch the direction of the motor with respect to
the direction input, switch the wires on either phase A or
phase B outputs.
WARNING! Do not connect or disconnect motor or power
leads with power applied!
Motor Wiring
As with the power supply wiring, motor wiring should be run separately
from logic wiring to minimize noise coupled onto the logic signals. Motor
cabling exceeding 1 foot in length should be shielded twisted pairs to
reduce the transmission of EMI (ElectroMagnetic Interference) which can
lead to rough motor operation and poor system performance overall. For
more information on wiring and shielding, please refer to Rules of Wiring
and Shielding in Section 1.3 of this manual.
Recommended motor cables:
Dual twisted pair shielded (separate shields)
< 4A RMS per phase current..........Belden Part# 9368 or equivalent 18 AWG.
> 4A RMS per phase current..........Belden Part# 1492A or equivalent 16 AWG.
When using a bipolar motor, the motor must be within 100 feet of the
drive.

Connecting the Motor
The motor leads are connected to the following connector pins:
Phase Connector Pin
Phase A...................................................................................12
Phase A...................................................................................11
Phase B ...................................................................................10
Phase B .................................................................................... 9
