Wiring a Mechanical Limit Switch

You can use normally open or normally closed limit switches. Either way, wire them as shown here.

Be sure to set the polarity using the Si Programmer™ for Si™ drives or

QuickTuner™ software for the

SV7-S and SV7-Q.

Wiring a Limit Sensor

Some systems use active limit sensors that produce a voltage output rather than a switch or relay

closure. These devices must be wired differently than switches.

If your sensor has an open collector output or a sinking output, wire it like this:

If the sensor output goes low at the limit, select the option “closed” (in the software). If the output is

open, or high voltage, choose “open”.

Other sensors have sourcing outputs. That means that current can flow out of the sensor output,

but not into it. In that case, wire the sensor this way:
