Basic wiring scheme
SimuCUBE basic wiring scheme. Please see the motor position sensor table for the DB15 connector pinout.
RJ45 connector wiring examples
Example of how to wire buttons and analog signals to SimuCUBE.
Easiest way to wire the rj45 connectors are through a terminal block adapter such as this. Items like this can be obtained for example from eBay (try
this search).
Internal connector pinouts
| EXT-LEDS connector is directly wired to microcontroller I/O pins without any protection devices (such as ESD clamp diodes, or resistors). Any miswiring may cause permanent damage to the drive. |
| Damage caused through EXT-LEDS connector is not covered by the warranty. |
