Cables
Each Hexapod is equipped with cables terminated with SUB-D25M
connectors and can be directly connected to its controller.
CAUTION
Numbering of axes is important for strut connections. A mismatch will
cause fatal errors during initialization.
NOTE
On each connector, a sticker indicates the home preset and backlash on
the SUB-D25M connector, and the resolution on the SUB-D15M connector.
These parameters have to be set into the controller for each strut. This
is done at our factory when the Hexapod is ordered with its own
HXP100P-ELEC or HXP100P-ELEC controller.
WARNING
These Hexapods must be grounded via a threaded hole to
avoid electrical disturbances generated by ground loops.
WARNING
These cables are shielded correctly. For a correct operation, make sure
to lock connectors (ground continuity provided by the cable).
WARNING
Keep the motor cables at a safe distance from other electrical cables in
your environment to avoid potential cross talk.
