3.1 Selecting and Connecting Stepper Motors
WARNING:
INCORRECT WIRING OF THE STEPPER MOTOR TO THE DRIVE BOARD CAN LEAD TO
IMMEDIATE DAMAGE OF DRIVE BOARD - DO NOT CONNECT OR DISCONNECT MOTORS WHILE POWER
IS ON.
4 Wire, 6 Wire, and 8 Wire stepper motors can be used.
4 Wire motors are recommended as they are by their manufacture true bipolar motors and easier
to properly connect to stepper motor drive controller.
It is critical to obtain a proper motor coil diagram of any motor you wish to utilize (making cross
connections between the two coils will destroy the control circuitry).
1.8 deg per step resolution is the industry standard for most automation grade stepper motors
and is recommended for most applications.
