DAPTER
Thank you for purchasing a 68M-50F step/servo bulkhead cable adapter.
Using the 68M-50F step/servo bulkhead cable adapter, you can connect a
68-pin motion controller to a 50-pin motion accessory, or you can connect
a 50-pin ValueMotion controller to a 68-pin motion accessory. You set
switches to configure the adapter for stepper or servo operation, as well as
to set each axis as either a trigger input or a breakpoint output.
Configuring Your Adapter
Make sure the power is off to the controller and the accessory before setting
the switches.
Figure 1 shows the location of the switches on the adapter.
