5. Setup u Installazzjoni

5.1 Immuntar tal-Mutur

The motor's face plate is equipped with six M3 threaded mounting holes. These holes are evenly spaced around the outer edge, forming a regular hexagon, with the centers of neighboring holes 15.5 mm apart. Use appropriate M3 screws to securely fasten the motor to your application's chassis or mounting bracket.

5.2 Wiring the Motor and Encoder

The encoder features six color-coded leads, terminated by a 6-pin female header with a 0.1-inch pitch. Connect these leads to your control system according to the pinout diagram below. Ensure correct polarity for both motor power and encoder signals.

• Hall Sensor B Vout: Encoder output B (square wave)
• Hall Sensor A Vout: Encoder output A (square wave)
• Hall Sensor Vcc: Encoder power supply (typically 5V, check your encoder's specific voltagrekwiżit e)
• Hall Sensor GND: Encoder ground
• Motor+: Positive terminal for motor power
• Motor-: Negative terminal for motor power

6. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

6.1 Powering the Motor

Connect a DC power supply within the 6-24V range to the motor's positive (Motor+) and negative (Motor-) terminals. Applying voltage will cause the motor to rotate. Reversing the polarity will reverse the direction of rotation.

6.2 Kontroll tal-Veloċità

The motor's speed can be controlled by varying the input voltage within its specified operating range. Alternatively, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) can be used to achieve precise speed control, especially with microcontrollers.

6.3 Encoder Feedback

The integrated Hall sensor encoder provides two square wave outputs, A and B, which are approximately 90 degrees out of phase. These quadrature signals are crucial for determining:

• Rotational Direction: By observing the phase relationship between signals A and B.
• Veloċità Rotazzjoni: By counting the pulses over a given time interval.
• Positional Feedback: By tracking the total number of pulses from a known starting point.

Connect the encoder outputs to a microcontroller or dedicated encoder interface for processing these signals.

7. Manutenzjoni

• Keep the motor and gearbox clean and free from dust, debris, and foreign objects.
• Regularly inspect all wiring connections for signs of wear, fraying, or damage. Replace any damaged wires immediately.
• Avoid continuously operating the motor beyond its specified torque and current limits to prevent overheating and premature wear.
• Ensure proper ventilation around the motor, especially during prolonged operation, to dissipate heat effectively.
