2 Getting Started
The following items are needed:
• a 12 - 70 volt DC power supply, see the section below entitled “Choosing a Power Supply” for
help in choosing the right one
• a small flat blade screwdriver for tightening the connectors (included)
• a PC running Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, or Windows 7 or 8
• A CAT5 network cable (not included).
2.1 Installing Software
Before utilizing the SSM23Q/IPIntegrated Step-Servo Motor and Step-Servo Quick Tuner Software
in an application, the following steps are necessary:
• Download and install the Step-Servo Quick Tuner software.
• If you intend to connect the drive directly to your PC, configure your computer to use IP
address 10.10.10.11. (For instructions on connecting your SSM drive to a local area network
(LAN), please consult the appropriate hardware manual)
• On the SSM drive, select switch position 0, which will assign IP address 10.10.10.10. (See the
hardware manual for further details on selecting IP addresses for the drive and PC)
• Launch the software by clicking: Start / All Programs / Applied Motion Products / Step-Servo
Quick Tuner
• Apply power to the drive.
• The software will recognize the drive and display the model and firmware version. At this point,
it is ready for use.
2.2 Mounting the Hardware
As with any step motor, the SSM23Q/IPmust be mounted so as to provide maximum
heat sinking and airflow. Keep enough space around the Integrated Motor to allow for
airflow.
• Never use the drive where there is no airflow or where other devices cause the
surrounding air to be more than 40°C (104°F).
• Never put the drive where it can get wet.
• Never use the drive where metal or other electrically conductive particles can
infiltrate the drive.
• Always provide airflow around the drive.
