Chapter 4 Connector Data and Feature Descriptions
Feedback Specifications The Kinetix 5700 drives accept motor feedback signals from Hiperface digital-
servo-link (DSL) encoders on the motor feedback (MF) connector and
Hiperface, incremental, and EnDat encoders on the universal feedback (UFB)
connector.
The MF and UFB connectors can be used in the following applications:
• Motor feedback
• Auxiliary feedback-only axis
• Dual-loop control applications
Encoder Feedback Supported on the DSL Feedback Connector
The Kinetix 5700 drives support Kinetix VPL, VPC-Q, VPF, VPH, and VPS servo
motors with Hiperface digital-servo-link (DSL) encoders by using the 2-pin
(MF) feedback connector.
Other Allen-Bradley motors and actuators with Hiperface single-turn or multi-
turn high-resolution absolute encoders are also accepted. However, to connect
these devices to the MF connector, you must also use the 2198-H2DCK
Hiperface-to-DSL (series B or later) converter kit for Hiperface-to-DSL
feedback conversion. Alternatively, you can use the universal (UFB) feedback
connector for those motors and actuators.
Encoder Feedback Supported on the UFB Feedback Connector
The Kinetix 5700 drives also support multiple types of feedback devices by
using the 15-pin (UFB) universal feedback connector and sharing connector
pins in many cases. Use the 2198-K57CK-D15M universal feedback connector
kit for terminating the feedback conductors.
IMPORTANT
Auto-configuration in the Logix Designer application of intelligent
absolute, high-resolution encoders, incremental, and EnDat encoders is
possible with only Allen-Bradley motors.
