Digital Hall connection for iPOS4803S
Remarks:
1. This connection is required when using Hall start method BLDC or PMSM and also for the Trapezoidal
commutation method. The digital halls are not used in this case as a feedback measurement device. The
actual motor control is done with an incremental encoder.
2. The iPOS4803 drives are equipped with a feature that detects breakage of Hall wires and/or of
incremental/absolute encoder wires.
3. The length of the cables must be up to 30m, reducing the exposure to voltage surges in industrial
environment.
