Part 1: Hardware Speciﬁcations

Note: A characteristic of

all motors is back EMF.

Back EMF is a source of

current that can push the

output of a power supply beyond

the maximum operating voltage

of the driver. As a result, damage

to the stepper driver could occur

over a period of time. Care should

be taken so that the back EMF

does not exceed the maximum

input voltage rating of the MForce

PowerDrive.

WARNING! The MForce

has components

which are sensitive to

Electrostatic Discharge

(ESD). All handling should be done

at an ESD protected workstation.

WARNING! Hazardous

voltage levels may be

present if using an open

frame power supply to

power your MForce product.

WARNING! Ensure that

the power supply output

voltage does not exceed

the maximum input

voltage of the MForce product that

you are using!

Getting Started

Microstepping MForce PowerDrive

Before You Begin

The Getting Started Section is designed to help quickly connect and begin using your Microstepping MForce

PowerDrive. The following examples will help you get a motor turning for the first time and introduce you to

the basic settings of the drive.

Tools and Equipment Required

 Microstepping MForce PowerDrive Unit (MFM)

 A NEMA 23 or 34 Size Stepping Motor

 Control Device for Step/Direction

 +5 to +24 VDC Optocoupler Supply (if using sinking output type)

 An Unregulated +12 to +48VDC Power Supply

 Basic Tools: Wire Cutters / Strippers / Screwdriver

 Wire for Power Supply (18 AWG) and Motor (16 AWG)

 22 AWG Wire for Logic Connections

Connecting the Power Supply

Using the recommended wire, connect the DC output of the power supply to the +V input of the connector

appropriate for your Microsteppi

ng MForce PowerDrive

model.

Connect the power supply ground to the Power Ground pin appropriate for your Microstepping MForce

PowerDrive.
