High Speed Digital Inputs (STEP, DIR)
The -S drives include two high speed inputs labeled STEP and DIR. They accept 5 volt single-ended or differential
signals, up to 2 MHz.
STEP and DIR Inputs are configured using the ST Configurator software.
The inputs can connect to an indexer, a master encoder or CNC handwheel for following applications, or they can
be used for connecting sensors, switches and other electronic devices. They can be used as the run/stop and
direction inputs for velocity (oscillator) mode.
Connection diagrams follow.
