Editing SimpleMotion V2 termination with bare cable

[[SimpleMotion V2]] communication link and [[Argon (servo drive)|Argon]] drives use [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_connector#8P8C RJ45] connectors and cables as physical connection standard.
While the preferred way to terminate [[SimpleMotion V2]] bus is to use [[SMV2BRK]] break-out-board, there is also an option to do it with bare RJ45 Ethernet cable. This page instructs how to achieve proper termination.

Prerequisities:

*Understanding of [[SimpleMotion V2 port]]

==Use as E-stop & Enable input==
In Argon drive, the same connector acts also as emergencecy stop or [[Safe torque off]] input. User may connect a e-stop button directly at the end of device chain to gain reliable stopping mechanism for all linked devices.

==Wiring with bare RJ45 cable==

{{damage|SimpleMotion V2 devices use pins 3, 6 and 8 (RS485_A,RS485_B and GND) for serial communication. If something interferes these lines, communication may fail or devices may be damaged. Before powering 24V to any of the pins, ensure that pins 3 and 6 are not connected to any external circuit. It's also highly recommended to use current limited 24V power source for initial tests to reduce risk of damage (0.15-0.3A limit).}}

<sup>1</sup>) STO1 and STO2 are controlling two independent [[Safe torque off]] methods. Both must be supplied 24V simultaneously to enable torque to the motor.

<sup>2</sup>) STO1 has limited functionality on Argon if HV DC bus is shared between drives or external DC voltage is supplied. For more info, see [[Argon user guide/J4 connector wiring]].
