Kit cabling varies with MDrive Hybrid ordered.

For rapid design verifi cation, all-inclusive
QuickStart Kits include connectivity, instructions and CD for MDrivePlus initial functional setup and system testing.

Order QuickStart Kits simply by placing a “K” at the beginning of an MDrive part number.

Connecting an MDrive has never been easier with readily available Communications Converters and Prototype Development Cables, in addition to Mating Connector Kits for use in building your own cables. Select the “Connectivity solutions” tab above for details on these connectivity options.

MDrive Hybrid is available with a factory-mounted rear control knob for manual shaft positioning.
