MID-7604/7602 Stepper Power Motor Drive User Guide

Panel-Mount Kit (Included)

The panel-mount kit allows you to mount the MID-7604/7602 inside a cabinet or enclosure. Using the 
provided screws, attach the panel-mount kit to the rear and front set of screw holes on the side panels of 
the MID-7604/7602, as shown in Figure 16.

Figure 16.

Note

The strain-relief bar and panel-mount kit cannot be installed at the same time.

Amplifier/Driver Command Signals

For stepper drivers, the two industry standards for command signals are as follows:

Step and Direction signals (MID-7604/7602 standard)

Independent CW and CCW pulses

The MID-7604/7602 uses stepper drivers that have active high step and direction inputs. You must 
configure the stepper outputs of your motion controller for Step and Direction signals with active high 
polarity.

Note

You can use National Instruments Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) to configure 

the stepper polarity for your NI motion controller.
