6. GETTING STARTED
In order to properly connect your new IMD17 Unit, first take a look at Figure 4, below.
Here’s a list of the parts needed to make the motor run:
• +12 to 24 Volt Power Supply
• Additional +5 Volt Power Supply
• Function Generator
1.
Ensure that the IMD17 is not connected to the Main Power Supply until the
following procedures have been properly carried out.
2.
Connect Pin 8 to the Positive Terminal of the +5 VDC Power Supply.
3.
Connect the Negative Terminal of the +5 VDC Power Supply to the Negative
Terminal of the Signal Generator. This will be referred to as the Signal
Ground.

WARNING! DO NOT DISCONNECT THE DB-9 CABLE FROM THE IMD17 UNIT WHILE
POWER IS STILL BEING SUPPLIED. THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE INTERNAL
DRIVER BOARD.
WARNING! If you do not have a +5 VDC Power Source, use a Resistor in series to
limit the current of the opto isolators. See following page for Resistor values. If
the current exceeds 10 mA, the opto couplers cease to function.
