Connecting the Motor
Never connect or disconnect the motor while the power is on.
Applied Motion motor:
To connect an Applied Motion servo motor to your SV7, you’ll need a set of extension cables. For
M series (as well as N and A series) motors, use the BLUENC and the BLuMTR
cables. For V series motors, use the 3004-214 and 3004-230 cables. For J-
Series motors use 3004-300 and 3004-301 cables.
Connect the motor to one end of the cable. The other end of the motor
extension cable has lead wires that connect to the drive’s motor screw terminal
connector as follows:
A = red wire
B = white wire
C = black wire
chassis ground screw = green wire
Leave the last pin on the motor/power connector unconnected.
The encoder on the back of the V series motors can connect directly to the encoder connector on
the SV7, or a 3004-230 extension cable can be used when the motor must be located further than
18” from the drive. For M, N and A series motors, use a BLUENC series encoder extension cable.

tor the current coming out of the power supply and into the drive at various motor loads. This will
tell you how much current you really need so you can design in a lower cost power supply.
If you plan to use a regulated power supply you may encounter a problem with regeneration. If
you rapidly decelerate a load from a high speed, much of the kinetic energy of that load is trans-
ferred back to the power supply. This can trip the overvoltage protection of a switching power
supply, causing it to shut down. See Connecting the Power Supply for details on the RC-050
regeneration clamp. Unregulated power supplies are better because they generally do not have
overvoltage protection and have large capacitors for storing energy coming back from the drive.
They are also less expensive.
