- SERVO MOTOR CONTROLLER CONNECTIONS -
The Servo Motor Controller gets its power and data through a standard J-6/A data cable. The pin out
of this cable is as follows:
Pin #1 BROWN GROUND
Pin #2 RED 15 Volt DC Supply Input
Pin #3 ORANGE Channel 16 (0FH) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #4 YELLOW Channel 16 (0FH) Reference
Pin #5 GREEN Channel 15 (0EH) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #6 BLUE Channel 15 (0EH) Reference
Pin #7 VIOLET Channel 14 (0DH) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #8 GRAY Channel 14 (0DH) Reference
Pin #9 WHITE Channel 13 (0CH) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #10 BLACK Channel 13 (0CH) Reference
Pin #11 BROWN GROUND
Pin #12 RED 15 Volt DC Supply Input
Pin #13 ORANGE Channel 12 (0BH) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #14 YELLOW Channel 12 (0BH) Reference
Pin #15 GREEN Channel 11 (0AH) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #16 BLUE Channel 11 (0AH) Reference
Pin #17 VIOLET Channel 10 (09H) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #18 GRAY Channel 10 (09H) Reference
Pin #19 WHITE Channel 9 (08H) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #20 BLACK Channel 9 (08H) Reference

Pin #37 VIOLET Channel 2 (01H) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #38 GRAY Channel 2 (01H) Reference
Pin #39 WHITE Channel 1 (00H) 0-10 volt DC Analog Input
Pin #40 BLACK Channel 1 (00H) Reference
To connect a potentiometer to the input of the Servo Controller, you will need to provide a 10 VDC
reference and 15 VDC power supply. The 10 volt DC and negative references can be shared by all of
the potentiometers attached to a Servo Controller. Its current requirements are minimal, since about the
only current flow is that through the potentiometers. The same 15 volt DC supply that powers the 10 volt
reference can also be used to power the Servo Controller through one or more of the Ô
15 Volt DC SupplyÕ
input pins.
When using direct potentiometer inputs to the Servo Controller, the pot must travel all or nearly all of
its stroke. If it doesnÕt, or you canÕt get all of the stroke you need on the servos, a Joystick Amp may be
needed. A Joystick Amplifier or the output from a PC¥MACs Animation Control System will provide all of
the voltage references and power supplies needed by the Servo Controller.
