Warning - If you are using a non-Applied Motion motor, do not connect the motor until after you have congured the drive for your motor. Refer to Step 4.
Connect the drive to the motor. Four lead motors can be connected in only one way, as shown in Figure 1.
We recommend that eight lead motors be connected in parallel, as shown in Figure 2.
If using a non-Applied Motion Products motor, please refer to your motor specs for wiring information.
