General Mach Discussion / Re: Direction pulse
« on: January 14, 2012, 06:11:52 AM »
Hey simon67 - is the attached pic your drive? If so connect 5Vdc to PUL+, DIR+ and ENBL+, then connect PUL- to your step pin and set Mach to active low. Connect DIR- to your dir pin - doesn't matter whether Mach's set to active high or low for this - you can swap it later if your motors sping the "wrong" way. Connect ENBL+ to ground for now.
Make sure you have SW4 ON - (though these have been known to be wrong way round on the screen print)
Set SW1,2,3 to your desired motor current and 5,6,7,8 to your required microsteps - I'd suggest 1600 pulse/rev.
You should be good to go.

EDIT 14/1/12: If your BOB has optocouplers you'd be best to bypass them if you can as these drivers have optocouplers already.
EDIT 1/6/12: The last line of para1 should of course read: Connect ENBL- to ground for now. Thanks to those who took the time to point this out.
