Encoder Mounting and Assembly
1. For HEDS-5500 and 5600: Mount encoder base plate onto
motor. Tighten screws. Go on to step 2.
2. Snap encoder body onto base plate locking all 4 snaps.
1a. For HEDS-5540, 5640 and HEDM-5500, 5600: Slip
alignment tool onto motor shaft. With alignment tool in
place, mount encoder baseplate onto motor as shown above.
Tighten screws. Remove alignment tool.
4. Use the center screwdriver slot, or either of the two side
slots, to rotate the encoder cap dot clockwise from the one
dot position to the two dot position. Do not rotate the
encoder cap counterclockwise beyond the one dot position.
3a. Push the hex wrench into the body of the encoder to
ensure that it is properly seated into the code wheel hub set
screws. Then apply a downward force on the end of the hex
wrench. This sets the code wheel gap by levering the code
wheel hub to its upper position.
The encoder is ready for use!
3b. While continuing to apply a downward force, rotate the
hex wrench in the clockwise direction until the hub set
screw is tight against the motor shaft. The hub set screw
attaches the code wheel to the motor's shaft.
3c. Remove the hex wrench by pulling it straight out of the
encoder body.
