Panasonic MSD043Axxx Servo Driver pin outs????

[JAZZCNC]

Anyhoot with a lot of help (thanks to joe.average and Andrew over at the Warp9 forum). I have managed to sort out the wiring in theory. However the manual states the pins numbers but not how they relate to the actual connection on the unit. The connection looks like an SCSI 36 pin.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking here.? You say how they relate to the connection on the Unit.? What unit are you talking about.? Do you mean the Controller or breakout board if so then you don't say which controller or breakout board and without that, no one can help you really?

The diagram of the pinout for the drive is self-explanatory really, you decide which of the pins you are going to use and connect to the pin numbers on the 36-pin connector. Then at the other end, you have the choice to wire to the same pin numbers if it's 36pins or if the controller or bob has its own pin numbers on say a 44 pin connector then you wire to the relevant pins this requires. Often on the connector at the other end, you will pull each pin wire and send it to several places inside the control box.

We need more info on the "Unit" you talk about.

Hi,

The unit in question is the Panasonic MSD043xx series servo. Not worried about the breakout board side. https://industrial.panasonic.com/con...s_manual_e.pdf

The first image in my above post shows the pin outs for the panasonic unit (from the paperwork included with the miller). But the manual does not state which pin on the physical drive connector is pin 1.

Picture 2 is what I "guess" are the pin numbers on the connection actually on the unit and the corresponding connector that connects to that.

The last picture is of the the cables that came with it, but I think they are proprietry to the Artisan boards. So of no help to me. But I can cut the serial connectors off and still use the cable.

thanks

A bit like this one which is a db44 for a delta.

The loose ends get connected to the relevant pins on your breakout/controller you want to use to control it.



Looks like a 36pin scsi on the panny to me.

Something like this and chop it to loose one end (depending on whether need male/female).

Or solder your own 'kit' connector together.

It's the scsi 36 pin on the actual drive i need to know about.

The attachment not working for me.
I added a couple of examples in my previous post.
I don't know whether you'd need male/female.
You'll have to judge it against your drive CN connection.
Likely to find something on Aliexpress (if your not in a rush).

Ok, can you post the manual or a link to it.
