4.

Identify the multi-axis stage power and feedback cables by the labels near
the connector.

5.

Attach the feedback cable, and the combination power and brake cable to
the motor.

a. Carefully align each cable connector with the respective motor

connector as shown in the diagram.

b. Do not apply excessive force when mating the cable and motor

connectors.

If the connectors do not go together with light hand force, realign and
try again.

ATTENTION: Do not connect or disconnect the motor feedback
cable, or the power and brake cable while power is applied to
them.

Inadvertent pin connections may result in unexpected motion or
result in irreversible damage to the components.

ATTENTION: Be sure that cables are installed and restrained
to prevent uneven tension or flexing at the cable connectors.
Excessive and uneven lateral force at the cable connectors may
result in the connector’s environmental seal opening and closing
as the cable flexes. Failure to observe these safety procedures
could result in damage to the motor and its components.
