General Mach Discussion / Re: connecting sanyo denki drivers with parallel port.

« on: August 22, 2011, 09:43:53 AM »

Thanks a lot. I have dropped the idea of buying from this vendor . I was under the impression that i am getting 3 ( motors and drives ) for about $350 according to his quote, and now only he is clarifying that i have to pay $1050. there was ambiguity in his quote.

Hence i dropped the idea of buying Sanyo denki and now i am looking for cheaper alternatives.

Thank you very much for your time and advice.

General Mach Discussion / connecting sanyo denki drivers with parallel port.

« on: August 19, 2011, 07:50:21 AM »

i have installed mach in my pc. i have tested the parallel port and it is working fine. Sanyo denki stepper drive BS1D200P10 does not have step and dir terminals . Instead it has cw ccw teminals .

Vendor's technician could show me stepper motor revolve either in clockwise and after tweaking connections anti clockwise.( without connecting to parallel port)

The User manual does not help.

My problem is " how do i connect" the paraller port pin no 2 and 3 which i have configured as step and dir with the stepper drive

I have attached the user manual of the driver.

would be really helpful if someone helps
