SW9 

On, allows double pulse operation ie CW/CCW.  

 

 

Off, allows Pulse and Direction operation 

SW10  

On, for RS485 operation 

 

 

Off, for Pulse operation.

 

 

7. DRIVER CONNECTION TO MOTOR

 

Series Connection: 

P860A driver can drive any 4, 6 or 8 lead hybrid stepper motors.   

 

Series Connection: 

A  series  configuration  would  typically  be  used  in  applications  where  a  higher  torque  at 
lower  speeds  is  required.  Because  this  configuration  has  the  most  inductance,  the 
performance  will  start  to  degrade  at  higher  speeds.    Use  the  per  phase  (or  unipolar) 
current rating divided by 1.4 to determine the peak output current 

 

 

Parallel Connection:

 

An  8-lead  motor  in  parallel  configuration  offers  a  more  stable,  but  lower  torque  at  lower 
speeds.  Because  of  the  lower  inductance,  there  will  be  higher  torque  at  higher  speeds.  
Multiply the per phase (or unipolar) current rating by rating by 1.4 to determine peak output 
current.

CONTROL SIGNALS 

 
Low voltage = 0 to 0.5V 
High voltage = 4 to 5V.  
Higher  voltages  (up  to  28V  can  be  used  with  a  limiting  resistor.  The  input  resistance  is 
220

Ω
