About the TL-Series Feedback Connector Kit

This connector kit is used to build a custom feedback cable for use with TL-Series servo motors. It is compatible only with feedback cables from the following TL-Series servo motors: TLY-A110, TLY-A120, TLY-A130, TLY-A220, TLY-A230, TLY-A2530, TLY-A2540, or TLY-A310.

Important User Information

Solid state equipment has operational characteristics that differ from electromechanical equipment. Refer to Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (publication SGI-1.1) for important differences. All persons responsible for applying this equipment must ensure that each intended application is acceptable.

Rockwell Automation, Inc. is not responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.

Examples and diagrams in this manual are for illustrative purposes only. Rockwell Automation, Inc. cannot assume responsibility or liability for actual use based on these examples and diagrams due to the many variables and requirements of any particular installation.

No patent liability is assumed by Rockwell Automation, Inc. regarding the use of information, circuits, equipment, or software described in this manual.

Reproduction of this manual, in whole or in part, without written permission from Rockwell Automation, Inc. is prohibited.

The following notes are used to highlight safety considerations:

[Warning] Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can cause an explosion in a hazardous environment, which may lead to personal injury or death, property damage, or economic loss.
[Attention] Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can lead to personal injury or death, property damage, or economic loss. Attentions help you identify a hazard, avoid a hazard, and recognize the consequences.
[Shock Hazard] Labels may be on or inside the equipment, for example, a drive or motor, to alert people that dangerous voltage may be present.
[Burn Hazard] Labels may be on or inside the equipment, for example, a drive or motor, to alert people that surfaces may reach dangerous temperatures.
[Important] Identifies information that is critical for successful application and understanding of the product.

Before You Begin

Identify the wire colors and pinouts specific to a TL-Series motor by referring to the Feedback Connector information on page 6.

[Attention] To prevent electrical shock, disconnect the connector, motor, and drive from the power source before installing or servicing. This device should be used only in an enclosure that prevents exposure to contaminants.
[Attention] When installing a cable, restrain it so that uneven tension or flexing at the connector does not occur. Excessive and uneven force at the cable connector may result in damage to the housing and contacts as the cable flexes. Failure to observe this safety procedure could result in damage to the motor and its components.

Refer to the manual for your drive to determine pinouts and wire connections appropriate to these connections.

TL-Series (Bulletin TLY) motors are compatible with these Allen-Bradley drives:

If signal wires exceed the maximum size allowed by this connector kit, reduce the wire size as shown in this example: A wire of 1.4 mm² (16 AWG) is shown reduced to 0.2 mm² (24 AWG) using heatshrink covers over a solder joint and wire insulation.

Assemble the Feedback Connector Kit

Follow these steps to assemble your TL-Series connector kit:

  1. Slide the backshell onto the cable.
  2. Remove the insulation from the end of the wires to expose a maximum of 2.5 mm (0.1 in.) of wire.
  3. Crimp a socket on each wire. Refer to the Parts List on page 4 for the correct socket type. Refer to the Feedback Connector table on page 6 for the correct wire color and connector position for each wire.
  4. Insert the socket of each wire into the appropriate position at the back of the connector housing.
  5. Ground the cable shield.
  6. Screw the backshell onto the connector housing.
  7. Select the type of backshell clamp and determine its appropriate orientation. The type and orientation of the backshell clamp is dependent on your application.
  8. Tighten the backshell clamp screws until the backshell clamp applies sufficient pressure on the cable jacket to retain the cable.
[Important] Do not over-tighten the backshell clamp screws. Applying excessive force may damage the threads in the plastic backshell.
