6 XDC2xxx Motor Controller Datasheet Version 1.3. November 6, 2014
Encoder Wiring
The encoder connector is a 6-pin Molex Microfit 3.0, model 43645. Pin assignment is in the table below.
Controller Mounting
During motor operation, the controller will generate heat that must be evacuated. The published amps rating can
only be fully achieved if adequate cooling is provided. Mount the controller so that the bottom plate makes con-
tact with a metallic surface (chassis, cabinet) to conduct the heat.
Commands and I/O Connections
Connection to RC Radio, Microcomputer, Joystick and other low current sensors and actuators is done via the 15
connector located in front of the board. The functions of many pins vary depending on user configuration. Pin
assignment is found in the table below.
