What the thread found

• CP SLD 100 motors have the same 5-pin connectors as Heden motors and will physically connect to Seitz systems
• The standard Seitz amplifier lacks sufficient power to drive CP SLD 100 motors and its output driver will fail when attempting to run them
• CP amplifiers configured for Seitz controllers can successfully power CP SLD 100 motors without damage
• Motors compatible with BFD systems via 5-pin connectors are generally compatible with Seitz, Genio, and WRC systems

Depends on

• The discussion does not resolve whether Genio amplifiers have adequate power for these motors
• The answer about compatibility assumes standard configurations and may not apply to modified setups
