Connecting the Encoders
Insert the connector from each encoder into the mating connector on the
back of the readout. Fasten it with a small screwdriver.
Provide enough slack in the encoder cables to allow for full travel of all
machine axes. Check that machine movements will not pinch the cables.
Use the cable tie-down hardware kits supplied with the encoders to fasten the
cables neatly to the machine.
Encoder inputs are assigned to specific axis displays through software. Note
which encoder is connected to each input, and refer to page 53 for display
configuration instructions.
Connecting a Ground Wire
Connect a ground wire from the terminal on the back of the readout to the
machine. The machine should also be connected to a solid earth ground. If
not, be sure that the readout is.
Checking Voltage and Connecting Power
Check that the voltage available at the power source is within specification
before connecting it to the readout. Refer to page 60.
Connect the readout to the power source using the power cord supplied.
!
CAUTION
Connecting the readout to a power source outside of the
acceptable range may damage the readout, the encoders, or
both.
