Getting Started
To use your Applied Motion Products motor control, you will need the following:
• a 12-42 volt DC power supply for the motor. Please read the section entitled
Choosing a Power Supply for help in choosing the right power supply.
• +5 volts DC, 15mA to activate the optoisolation circuits (if you don't use 5 volt
logic, see page 6.) This is provided by most indexers and PLCs.
• a source of step pulses capable of sinking at least 5 mA
• if your application calls for bidirectional rotation, you'll also need a
direction signal, capable of sinking 5 mA
• a compatible step motor
• a small flat blade screwdriver for tightening the connectors
The sketch below shows where to find the important connection and adjustment
points. Please examine it now.
