Introduction

In order to guarantee that the automatism operates correctly, it is necessary to respect some basic rules.

Section of wires used

Must be of sufficient size to avoid on-line voltage falls and overheating.

Cable path.

The encoder connector cables, the other sensors and the pre-actuators must be kept away from any source of radiation resulting from high-power electric circuit switches and which could cause malfunctions.

Encoder signal connector cables

The module/encoder connector cables must adhere to the following rules:

  • They must be shielded using a high quality shielding,

  • they must only carry related signals to the encoder,

  • the cable shielding must be linked to the protective ground connection both at the module and the encoder,

  • the grounding must be continuous throughout the connection.
