Maximum Cable Lengths for NI Motion Hardware

Hardware: Motion Control>>Controllers

Problem:
What is the maximum cable length that can be used to connect between an NI Motion Controller and an NI Universal Machine Interface(UMI) and between the UMI and the motor power drive?

Solution:
The maximum cable length from an NI Motion Controller to an NI UMI is 2 meters, which is the length of the longest cable offered by NI. The maximum cable length that can be used to connect an NI UMI to a motor power drive is also 2 meters.

Note: For both types of cables, we recommend using shielded cables that are grounded at one end.
