Before You Begin
Remove all packing material from within and around the item. After unpacking, verify the
catalog number against the purchase order., and visually inspect the cable and each connector for
damage. If necessary, notify the carrier of any shipping damage immediately.
Cables are stored and shipped in a coil, and will retain this shape unless you allow the cable to
straighten itself. To straighten a cable, hang a short cable from its mid-point or lay a long cable on
the floor in a straight line. Any coiling that persists in the cable should relax within the next
twenty-four hours. Doing this results in a cable that is easier to install.
Observe the following precautions when installing the cables in a servo system. Failure to observe
these safety notices could result in personal injury or damage to the motor and equipment.
ATTENTION: Arcing or unexpected motion can occur if the feedback, power, or
brake cables are connected or disconnected while power is applied to the drive.
Always remove power to the servo drive before connecting or disconnecting
cables at the drive or at the motor.
ATTENTION: The maximum length of cabling between the drive and the motor
must not exceed 90 m (295.5 ft), and a maximum of two (2) extension cables
may be connected between a drive and a motor. Refer to Kinetix Motion Control
Selection Guide, publication
GMC-SG001 , for additional information.
ATTENTION: The examples in this publication show all the available
connections, some of which may not be appropriate for your specific
installation. Refer to your drive installation or user manual for recommended
wire trim lengths, and wiring examples appropriate to your drive and motor
application.
Do not connect unused wires. Unused wires may be trimmed and finished as
necessary to prevent accidental contact with other wires or wire shields, or with
a ground connection.

threaded (M4) cable plugs. SpeedTec-ready DIN motor connectors are also
compatible with SpeedTec (M7/E7) cable plugs when the o-ring on the motor
connector is removed.
Motors equipped with threaded DIN (M4) connectors are compatible only with
