Connecting the Encoder & Hall Sensors
Encoder Pinout
The encoder connections use an HD-15 connector. For an Applied Motion A, N or M series
motor, you’ll want to use one of our BLUENC cables. For J-Series motors, use the 3004-
301-3M cable. If you are using another supplier’s motor, you’ll have to make your own cable
according to the pinout below. See the
Mating Connectors section for mating connector
information. When connecting the encoder and Hall sensors use high quality shielded cables.
Connect cable shield to HD-15 connector housing.
The BLuAC5 servo drive is designed for differential inputs on both the encoder signals and
hall sensors. It is highly recommended that encoders with differential line drivers be used to
provide maximum noise immunity. Using the BLUENC cable with AMP servo motors provides
the best opportunity for minimizing connection problems.
For best results, separate the motor and encoder cables by several inches.
