I did search the web, this section and the rest of the forum, but I can't find an answer to this. And I'm not an electronics guy, so please keep it simple.


I got an Emerson Control Techniques Commander SK VFD (not hooked up at all yet) that I'd like to hook up to the USBMotionCard STB4100 and control it through Mach3 once I know it's functioning properly using the keypad on the VFD.


But here's the part I am having trouble with, it's the wire(s) hookup from the USBMotionCard STB4100 to the VFD because they are marked different on both units.


do I have to connect it like that


VFD STB4100

T1 COM
T3 DAC
T4 O1


Any help would be appreciated

Not seen that VFD but this diagram was on page 142 of the manual.

T4 looks like your 0-10v speed signal from your motion card.
You may need to enable the drive with B4 before a signal on B5 will allow it to start.

Have a play on the bench and get it working before you wire it in. Use some jumpers and a DC voltage to set the speed.
