Motor
Introduction This section covers the setup and connection verification of a linear
motor with either Kinetix 6000, Kinetix 2000, or an Ultra3000 drive.
Before You Begin This chapter assumes you have wired your linear motor and
Allen-Bradley drive as shown on wiring diagrams in
Appendix B
starting on page 67 .
Motor Direction Defined
Positive motion is dependent on encoder orientation, encoder wiring,
and coil or magnet channel motion.
Most linear encoders are installed with the encoder cable facing the
same direction as the coil cable.
