Servo drives and VFDs are two different animals. VFDs are typically designed to spin "squirrel cage" induction motors (think standard 3 phase motors), where rotor slip is used to generate the magnetic field in the rotor. Servo drives are designed to spin synchronous AC motors/servo motors tha

Hi i use 5i20+ 7i33 i am interesting if i can use this ac motor drive http://www.anaheimautomation.com/products/ac/ac-drivers-controllers.php?tID=1176&pt=t&cID=385 and i will use PIN--ENAO -- to drive -motor drive (+/- 5 V DC) and signals from ac servo motor encoder directly connect to 7i33 board

hi board 7i33 has 50 pin connector - that controls 4 servomotor. each set of 12 pins -wires control control one servo drive/servomotor. here are the pins ENCA0-encoder A /ENCA0---encoder A- ENCB0encoder B /ENCB0encoder B- IDX0---what type
