acts only as an indicator.
If the red OVERTEMP LED becomes illuminated,

the BDS4 will become latched in the Inhibit mode
indicating an overheated BDS4 heatsink.
When the red OVERCURRENT LED becomes

illuminated, it indicates an overcurrent condition
usually due to a shorted load (motor), wiring, or
BDS4 power stage transistor. The BDS4 will become
latched in the Inhibit mode.
If the red OVERVOLTS LED becomes illuminated,

the BDS4 will become latched in the Inhibit mode,
indicating the presence of excessive main DC bus
voltage.
When the red UNDERVOLTS LED becomes

illuminated, the BDS4 will be put into the Inhibit
mode (but not latched) indicating the main DC Bus is
insufficient or absent.
If the red OVERSPEED LED becomes illuminated,

the BDS4 will become latched in the Inhibit mode
indicating that the motor has obtained an excessive
speed, or the resolver cable is miswired or has an
intermittent connection.

B.2 CABLE MODEL NUMBER SCHEME FOR INDIVIDUAL CABLE SET

Motor cables are designed to provide reliable and cost-effective interconnection between Industrial Drives' Goldline
Series Motors and any BDS Series Amplifier. GCS (Goldline Cable Set) models provide both motor (stator) and
resolver (feedback) cable of equal length. Cables include motor mating plugs with various termination options at the
amplifier end. There are 2 versions of the cable sets; the GCS and the GCSA. The GCS is used with motors that
have MS Bayonet-type connectors, while the GCSA is used with motors that have MS screw-type connectors. To
assist in ordering, the model number scheme for a cable set is as follows:

B.4 SPECIAL CABLES FOR RESOLVER FEEDBACK AND INTERFACE

The GC specials are designed to eliminate the need for the customer to make crimp connections for BDS4
input/output connector (C1) and BDS4 resolver connector (C2). These cables are terminated at C1 and C2 on the
BDS4 and are unterminated at the opposite end. The unterminated end is intended to be connected into a customer-
supplied terminal block. To assist in ordering, the model number schemes for these special cables are as follows:
Table B.9. Resolver Feedback Cables
GC-RF-4/5-XX Resolver feedback flying lead cable (not terminated at the motor). XX-length in
3 meter increments; 03, 09, etc.
GC-IOF-4-XX I/O flying lead cable (not terminated at customer's interface). XX-length in 3
meter increments; 03, 09, etc.
B.5 SPECIAL CABLES FOR LOGIC POWER SUPPLY

Special logic power supply cables are available to accommodate the various physical sizes of BDS4 and PSR4/5
modules and are designed based on standard module spacing requirements. Refer to drawing B-84929 for
information concerning decoding the model numbers of special logic bus cables. To assist in ordering, the model
number scheme for this cable is:
