Microstepping MForce PowerDrive Manual Revision R040507

Securing Power Leads and Logic Leads

Some applications may require that the MForce and/or the connected motor to move with the axis motion. If this 
is a requirement of your application, the motor leads must be properly anchored. This will prevent flexing and 
tugging which can cause damage at critical connection points on the MForce connectors. 

Layout and Interface Guidelines

Logic level cables must not run parallel to power cables. Power cables will introduce noise into the logic level 
cables and make your system unreliable.

Logic level cables must be shielded to reduce the chance of EMI induced noise. The shield needs to be grounded at 
the signal source to earth. The other end of the shield must not be tied to anything, but allowed to float. This allows 
the shield to act as a drain.

Power supply leads to the MForce PowerDrive need to be twisted. If more than one driver is to be connected to 
the same power supply, run separate power and ground leads from the supply to each driver.
