D8-3_EN 

– V1.0 

5/14 

Product Overview 

This motor controller can control stepper motors with up to 4 A continuous current at a supply voltage of up to 48 V. 
 

Ready for immediate use 

Connect the voltage source, control signals and motor and you're ready to go. No complicated software installation or time-
consuming wiring of various additional switches and sensors. 

Simple control 

With the loop mode, a continuous movement between 2 limit switches can be executed without the need for a master controller. 
The movement is executed at a fixed pre-set speed. 

Precise positioning 

When using the Pulse Mode, simple clock signals can be used for highly precise positioning. In combination with a PLC or a 
microcontroller, even highly complex applications can be realised.
