Interfacing to a Motion Controller

In some applications, servo control is provided by a motion controller and the drive simply obeys a
velocity or torque command. The industry standard for this command signal is ±10V. In most
cases, the encoder signals from the motor must feed back to the controller. The BLU-Q and BLU-S
servo drives are well suited for such applications.

To set up a BLU servo for this type of application, you must make a cable to connect the motion
controller to the BLU servo’s DB-25 I/O connector. Diagrams are shown below.

You’ll also need to use our

Quick Tuner

software to set the drive for torque or
velocity mode, to set the scaling and
offset, and to configure the motor.

Encoder Outputs

If you are using the BLU Servo in torque
or velocity mode with a servo controller,
you may need to feed the encoder signals
back to the controller. The DB-25 I/O
connector includes encoder output signals
for this purpose. Make sure the three
jumpers are set as shown below.
