Problem: The motor does not move when a step signal is sent to the

drive.
Solution: If the enable input is on (low with respect to a 5-24 volt signal),

it will disable the motor. Do not connect anything to the enable input if

there is no reason to disable the motor.

Problem: The motor will not run slow enough with a potentiometer con-

nected to my drive (it has an internal oscillator).
Solution: Some drives’ internal potentiometers cannot be adjusted to

zero speed. Check the specifications in the manual that came with the

drive.

Problem: At startup, the motor does not run although the wiring is

correct.
Solution: Make sure that dip switches and jumpers are set properly.

Read your driver manual carefully.

Problem: System not working properly.
Solution: Troubleshoot by replacing the drive and see if the problem

persists. Please read your drive manual before and during your setup.
