3.7. Main Power and Motor Power
The Panther receives power from main supply and delivers power to the motor. The table
below describes the pinout connections to the main power and motor power cables.
Pin Function Cable Pin Positions
AC Motor DC Motor
M3 Motor phase Motor Motor
M2 Motor phase Motor Motor
M1 Motor phase Motor N/C
PE Protective Earth Power and Motor
VN- DC Negative Power input Power
VP+ DC Positive Power input Power
3.7.1. Connecting Motor Power
Connect the M1, M2, M3 and PE pins (Figure 5) on the Panther in the manner described in
section 3.5 Integrating the Panther on a PCB. The phase connection is arbitrary, as the
Composer will establish the proper commutation automatically during setup. When tuning a
number of drives, you can copy the setup file to the other drives and thus avoid tuning each
drive separately. In this case, the motor-phase order must be the same as on the first drive.

Notes:
• For best immunity, it is highly recommended to use a 4-wire shielded (not twisted) cable
for the motor connection. The gauge is determined by the actual current consumption of
the motor.
• Connect the cable shield to the closest ground connection at the motor end.
• Connect the cable shield to the closest PE terminal of the Panther.
• Ensure that the motor chassis is properly grounded.
