Power and Communication Cables Add-a-Motor Cable OVERVIEW CBLSMADD-xM (Animatics “Add-A-Motor” Cable) Power and Communications Daisy Chain Cable for networking Power and Communications to multiple Animatics SmartMotors. MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS CBLSMADD series is the main power and communications cable consisting of a feed-thru 7W2 main motor connector split out to a single second motor 7W2 connector. The cable is designed to allow ease of connection to multiple motors in a single RS-232 serial daisy chain network. The Main Power Ground wire is of a larger gauge to decrease noise emissions at the ground-plane level. The RS-232 Communications lines are internally shielded from the power lines.

If there is just one 34 frame SmartMotor in a system design, then it should be the first motor in the chain so as to minimize voltage drop effects over the entire network.
