General Description.  The SMD, TST, and DSD 4.0 series units are identical to the 2.0 series with the 
following exceptions:

 1)

The units support 4 amps of motor current; factory pre-set is 4 amps.

 2)

The units may require additional cooling or mounting of the system to a 

larger metal 

surface if bottom lid or motor is too hot to touch (75

O

C).  See 

Appendix C.

 3)

The units support Full, Half, Quad (factory pre-set), and Octal step.

4)

The units are Auto-Park

tm

; park power is pre-set to 50% of the current 

adjustment 

dial.  Ignore references to the PARK signal in manual.  

Current and Step Angle Setting.  To remove the lid (bottom) and access the amplifier card which is 
mounted to the lid:

1)

Remove the 10 each hex-head screws.

2)

Carefully lift and fold lid to label side of box so as not to disturb the wiring 

harness.

3)

Adjust the blue pot, located on the card edge, to the desired output 

current as 

required; pot is normally set to 4.0 amps.

Select the two jumper blocks (pins) for the desired step angle per the table.
