1.3. Encoder Hall Effect Commutation
Aerotech brushless rotary motors are shipped from the factory with the correct motor
phase to Hall effect device relationship established. This is essential for proper motor
commutation.
Figure 1-2 shows the proper Hall effect to motor phasing for both clockwise (CW) and
counterclockwise (CCW) motor rotation (viewed looking into the mounting flange of the
motor).
Figure 1-2:
Hall Effect and Motor Phasing
The waveforms created by the motor phasing can be observed using a two-channel
oscilloscope, a 5V power supply, and six (10,000 ohm, 1/4 watt) resistors (Figure 1-3).
Three resistors should be wired in a Wye configuration
