Wiring Symbol Description
Shielding of the cable is earthed via the braid.
For Encoders using D-Type connections, the
following should be noted:
For D-TYPE with no PE terminal
The Braid should be connected to the D-TYPE
metal housing.
The Earth connection is maintained via the
metal housing of the mating D-Type, which is
itself Earthed via the housing.
Note:
This wiring does not apply to Molex connections
Encoder Earthing.
The drawing displays two earth connections.
Only one of the Earth connections described
below is mandatory.
Earthing Type 1 is for encoders where the earth
connection consists of the braid of the shielded
cable being connected to Earth via the earthed
chassis earthing.
Earthing Type 2 is for encoders where the earth
connection consists of earthing the Drain Wire
to a device with a terminal internally connected
to earth (PE) in the connector.
Earthing the Encoder and connecting the Earth
(PE) to the drive COMRET is mandatory to insure
reliable operation, high noise immunity and
rejection of voltage common mode
interferences.
