Notes:
• For best immunity, it is highly recommended to use a 4-wire shielded (not twisted) cable
for the motor connection. The gauge is determined by the actual current consumption of
the motor.
• Connect the cable shield to the closest ground connection at the motor end.
• Connect the cable shield to the closest PE terminal of the Gold Trombone.
• Ensure that the motor chassis is properly grounded.

The DC power for the Gold Trombone is delivered from a separated rectifying unit (supplied by
the user). Elmo recommends using the Tambourine rectifier specifically designed for use with
Elmo drives which offers a range of versatile options.
