Resolver Converter Connector Pinout

Connectors :

P1 carries DC power, encoder signals and E-stop chain. Pin 1 is closest to the "P1" marking.

2 A-
3 B+
4 B-
5 Z+
6 Z-
7 ESTOP+
8 ESTOP-
9 +5 V supply
10 Ground
A and B are the quadrature signals simulating the encoder. Z is the index signal, a narrow pulse once per revolution. If your encoder inputs are not differential, just use the A+, B+ and Z+ outputs. If you don't need the index function, just ignore the Z output.

J3 is the excitation output to the resolver. It is a differential output of 4.0 to 28 V (differential), depending on jumper settings. The jumpers should be set to give a peak reading (found by turning the resolver shaft to maximize one output) of approximately 3.6 V p-p. Pins are as follows :
