Delta ASDA-A2 Cable Pinout Mismatch – SKU 13131 (For Sale if Interested)

[Ryan Patterson]

A few months ago, I bought the "Oak Board to Servo Drive Cable - Delta ASD-A/ASD-AB" (SKU 13131) from Centroid. I'm just now getting around to using them and noticed something I hadn’t expected.

I had assumed the cable's wiring to the 50-pin connector would match the Delta documentation for the ASDA-A2 drives. However, it appears the pin connections do not align with what’s shown in the Delta docs. The photos I’ve attached show:

*Delta's official documentation
*Centroid’s cable diagram
*The existing controller wiring diagram (Syntec)

The Delta and Syntec pinouts match each other, but the Centroid cable seems to use a different configuration.

What am I missing here? Was this cable intended for an earlier Delta model (ASD-A/AB only), and not the A2 series?

Regardless of where I went wrong, I now have 4 of these cables that I can’t use. If anyone here can use them, feel free to make me an offer.

Thanks in advance for any clarification.
