This section covers the motor configurations for the IB series drive, as well
as general information concerning motor selection and connection. For
specific motor recommendations see the section in Part II of this docu-
ment pertaining to the model IB drive which you purchased.

When selecting a stepper motor for your application there are several
factors that need to be taken into consideration.
!
How will the motor be coupled to the load?
!
How much torque is required to move the load?
!
How fast does the load need to move or accelerate?
!
What degree of accuracy is required when positioning the
load?
While determining the answers to these and other questions is beyond the
scope of this document, they are details that you must know in order to
select a motor that is appropriate for your application. These details will
effect everything from the power supply voltage to the type and wiring
configuration of your stepper motor, as well as the current and half/full
step settings of your IB series drive.

The stepping motor, while classed as a DC motor, is actually an AC motor
that is operated by trains of pulses. Though it is called a “stepping motor”
it is in reality a polyphase synchronous motor. This means it has multiple
phases wound in the stator and the rotor is dragged along in synchronism
with the rotating magnetic field. The IB series drivers are designed to work
with the following types of stepping motors:
1) Permanent Magnet (PM).
2) Hybrid Stepping Motors.
