Position Follower (Step/
Direction)

The ULTRA 100 Series drive can be set up as a Position Follower
using Step/Direction commands by making the hardware connections
and performing the software setup and tuning described below. This
configuration allows the ULTRA 100 Series drive to electronically
gear or drive a servo motor using step and direction signals that
typically control a stepper drive. The connection diagram depicts the
minimum hardware necessary. Interfacing the drive to a stepper
indexer requires similar circuitry from the stepper indexer to J1.
Instructions are provided to configure the drive using a PC with
ULTRA Master software, but the optional TouchPad may also may be
used.

Hardware Set Up

Make the connections described below and shown in the Figure 8.4.
The appendix “Options and Accessories” on page A-1 lists the
interconnect cables available from the factory.

1. Connect an RS-232 cable between the serial port on the PC and

the J4 connector on the drive. A simple 3 wire cable is depicted in
the figure below.

2. Connect a Motor/Feedback cable from the motor to the J2 connec-

tor on the drive.

3. Connect a Power cable from the motor to TB1 (terminals R, S, T

and

) on the drive.

4. Connect the Step/Direction signals to the drive as shown in the

diagram.

5. Connect a jumper wire with a switches between the following

pins:

• J1-20 (ENABLE) and J1-26 (I/O PWR)

• J1-32 (INPUT1) and J1-26 (I/O PWR)

• J1-21 (FAULT RESET) and J1-26 (I/O PWR).

8These connections provide manual control for enabling or disabling the drive and resetting faults. Figure 8.4 shows the jumper, including normally open toggle
switches.

6. Connect an external 12 to 24 VDC power source for powering I/O

to J1-5 (I/O PWR) and J1-6 (I/O COM).

7. Connect the drive to a single phase 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz power

source.
