Introduction to the Microstepping MForce PowerDrive

The Microstepping MForce Pow- erDrive is a high performance, low cost microstepping driver that delivers unsurpassed smoothness and perfor- mance achieved through IMS’s advanced 2nd generation current control. By applying innovative techniques to con- trol current flow through the motor, resonance is significantly dampened over the entire speed range and audible noise is reduced.

Microstepping MForce PowerDrives accept a broad input voltage range

from +12 to +75 VDC, delivering enhanced performance and speed. Oversized input capacitors are used to minimize power line surges, reducing problems that can occur with long runs and multiple drive systems.

An extended operating range of –40° to +85°C provides long life, trouble free service in demanding environments.

The high, per phase output current of up to 5 Amps RMS, 7 Amps Peak, allows the extremely compact MForce PowerDrive to control a broad array of motors from size 23 to size 42.

The microstepping drive accepts up to 20 resolution settings from full to 256 microsteps per full step, including: degrees, metric and arc minutes. These settings may be changed on-the-fly or downloaded and stored in nonvolatile memory with the use of a simple GUI which is provided. This eliminates the need for external switches or resistors. Parameters are changed via an SPI port.

The versatile Microstepping MForce PowerDrive comes with dual mounting configurations to fit various system needs. All interface connections are accomplished using pluggable locking wire crimp connectors. Optional cables are avail- able for ease of connecting and configuring the MForce, and are recommended with first order.

The Microstepping MForce PowerDrive is a compact, powerful and inexpensive solution that will reduce system cost, design and assembly time for a large range of applications.

Configuring

The IMS SPI Motor Interface software is an easy to install and use GUI for configuring the Microstepping MForce PowerDrive from a computer's USB port. GUI access is via the IMS SPI Motor Interface included on the CD shipped with the product, or from www.imshome.com. Optional cables are available for ease of connecting and configuring the MForce.

The IMS SPI Motor Interface features:

•Easy installation.

•Automatic detection of MForce version and communication configuration.

•Will not set out-of-range values.

•Tool-tips display valid range setting for each option.

•Simple screen interfaces.
