Greetings Everyone,
I am currently doing one project for controlling a electric cylinder using compax3(Parker's Controller). The electric cylinder have a servo motor from manufacturer Phase Motion Control and have a two connection. One is for power whereas another is for feedback. The problem is that motor has M23 pinout whereas the controller has DB15 3 rows type connection. I have been trying to figure out the pin details for the connection and i am still unable to figure out. I have contacted with the manufacturers but i still cannot relate the data they have provided me(I am new to the field of automation,so need a step by step instruction). I will attach the pinout given by the motor manufacturer and the pinout provided by the compax3. I can see that there is A+ A_ B+ B- but other than that there is one VCC in motor but there is 2(5 volt and 24 volt in compax3), I dont know where to connect clock+- , data+-, PTC+-)Can you please help me to figure out which one pin should be connected to which one. Moreover i cannot understand the description they provide in compax3 pin config.
Thank you all
Thanking You All

I recommend you contact Parker further about this, since none of the hardware involved is from NI.
As far as programming, we do offer a SDI plugin for the Compax3 if you are using a NI Real-Time controller: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/52867/en/.
