If using the UMI-7764, use the available screw-terminal connections on the same axis
terminal block as the AKD servo drive connections.

If using the UMI-7772/74, use the screw-terminal connections on the UMI-7772/74 to
AKD drive cable. Table 1 shows the screw-terminal connector pinout.
12. Tune the motor with a load connected using the Servo Tune Main tab in MAX. Refer to
Manually Tuning a System From Scratch topic in the Measurement & Automation Explorer
Help for Motion for information about using the Servo Tune tabs to tune your motor.
