MD-CC300-000: USB to SPI Parameter Setup Cable

The MD-CC300-000 USB to SPI Parameter Setup Cable provides a communication connection between the 10-pin connector on some Microstepping MForce PowerDrives and the USB port on a PC.

IMS SPI Interface Software communicates to the

Parameter Setup Cable through the PC's USB port.

The Parameter Setup Cable interprets SPI commands

 

and sends these commands to the MForce

 

PowerDrive through the SPI interface.

Adapter Cables

Parameter Setup Cable and Adapters

The optional 12.0' (3.6m) parameter setup cable part number MD-CC300-000 facilitates communica- tions wiring and is recommended with first order. It connects from the P2 connector to a PC's USB port. Models with the 12-pin pluggable locking wire crimp require adapter MD-ADP-1723C.

Prototype Development Cable

For testing and development using the 12-pin pluggable locking wire crimp, the 12.0" (30.5cm) prototype development cable plugs into the MD-ADP-1723C adapter and has flying leads for connection to the user interface. Part number ADP-3512-FL.

See Figure A.3 on the following page for dimensional and connection information.
