  Keep the motor wires as far away as possible from the feedback, control and 
communication cables. 
  Ensure that in normal operating conditions, the shielded wires and drain carry no current. 
The only time these conductors carry current is under abnormal conditions, when 
electrical equipment has become a potential shock or fire hazard while conducting 
external EMI interferences directly to ground, in order to prevent them from affecting the 
drive. Failing to meet this requirement can result in drive/controller/host failure. 
  After completing the wiring, carefully inspect all wires to ensure tightness, good solder 
joints and general safety.
