ZETA6104 Installation Guide
Pre-installation Adjustments
Factory Settings May Be Sufficient (if so, skip this section)
• Zeta motors are pre-configured for series operation
• Motor current is factory set for the Zeta motor if it was ordered with the ZETA6104
• Device address is set to zero (if daisy-chaining you can automatically establish with the ADDR command)
• Serial communication method is RS-232C

eta Motor Curves
Use series wiring if your application permits. The ZETA motor
comes from the factory with a permanently attached motor cable. The connector on
the cable is prewired for series motor current (see drawing below). The operating
temperature of a motor connected in series will be lower than that of a motor
connected in parallel. Typically, series connections work well in high torque/low
speed applications.

When to use parallel wiring. At higher speeds, a motor connected in
parallel will produce more torque than the same motor connected in series. Use
caution, however, because the operating temperature of the motor in parallel will
be much hotter. If you operate your motor in parallel, measure motor temperature
under actual operating conditions. If the motor exceeds its maximum case
temperature, reduce the duty cycle to limit motor heating. ZETA motors have
maximum case temperatures of 212°F (100°C).
To rewire the motor connector for parallel motor current, pull back the rubber boot
that covers the connector and attach wires from the motor cable as shown below.
