Anilam Scale

[jcdammeyer]

I have an old Anilam A2 linear scale with a round connector having 7 pins.
Supposedly superseded by Accurite RBS2 series ENC150 except they have a 6 pin connector and the wire colors don't match.

Here's what I have:
1: White wire
2: Blue wire
3: Two wires, Yellow and Green.
4: Two wires, Red and Pink
5: Black
6: Two wires, Grey and Brown
7: uninsulated Shield wire.

Anyone have a data sheet on this style tucked away somewhere?

There are a few out there if you search for wiring diagram

I have a Lagun ftv2 that originally had a crusader M cnc unit on it but the previous owner removed it, along with just cutting the wiring to the Anilam

As yet after searching for a few hours I've found nothing. Tempted to take the head apart and trace it to find which is +5V and which is ground. After that I can figure out A/B etc with the scope.
