Always utilize twisted, shielded signal pairs to connect absolute encoders, and route them far from high-current variable frequency drive (VFD) output runs to eliminate high-frequency electromagnetic interference.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #1a365d; margin-top: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 0.5rem;\"\u003eInstallation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #fff5f5; border-left: 4px solid #c53030; padding: 1rem; margin-bottom: 1.5rem;\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong style=\"color: #9b2c2c; display: block; margin-bottom: 0.5rem;\"\u003eCRITICAL WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE AND MOVEMENT RISK\u003c\/strong\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"color: #9b2c2c; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n    Before beginning mechanical installation or wire termination, fully disconnect all electrical power sources driving the host machine and the positioner unit.
