Take the following steps during wiring and installation to improve the encoder’s noise resistance.
• Always use the specified encoder cables.
• If cables are joined midway, be sure to use connectors. And do not remove more than 50 mm of the
cable insulation. In addition, always use shielded cables.
• Do not roll cables. If cables are long and are rolled, mutual induction and inductance will increase and
cause malfunctions. Always use cables fully extended.
• When installing noise filters for encoder cables, use clamp cores.
• The following table shows the recommended clamp cores.
• Do not place the encoder cable with the following cables in the same duct.
Control cables for brakes, solenoids, clutches, and valves.
