3.10 Grounding
Ground the driver and servo motor securely.
To prevent an electric shock, always connect the protective earth (PE) terminal
(marked ) of the driver to the protective earth (PE) of the cabinet.
The driver switches the power transistor on-off to supply power to the servo motor. Depending on the wiring
and ground cable routing, the driver may be affected by the switching noise (due to di/dt and dv/dt) of the
transistor. To prevent such a fault, refer to the following diagram and always ground.
