Yes Yes
• I/Os that are assigned
to the drive
Yes Yes
• Measuring inputs
No Yes

Note
For optimal noise immunity of the digital inputs, the use of shielded cables is necessary in
certain cases. This is necessary when the digital inputs are to be used as
• Inputs of measuring inputs or
• Inputs for the external zero mark
