Choosing a Power Supply
To find out how to choose a power supply refer to the tech notes on our website.
Mounting the Drive
To operate the drive continuously at maximumpower you must properly mount it on
a heat sinking surface with a thermal constant of no more than 4°C/watt. Often, the
metal enclosure of your system will make an effective heat sink.

Microstepping CE Mark 1/64 step (12,800 s/r) with 1.8 motor. Pure sine
waveform.
CE Mark Complies with EN55011A and EN50082-1(1992).
Idle Current Reduction
Your drive is equipped with a feature that automatically reduces the motor
current by 50% anytime the motor is not moving. . Idle current reduction is
enabled by sliding switch #4 toward the 50% IDLE label,as shown in the
sketch below. Sliding the switch away from the 50% IDLE label disables the
reduction feature

Microstepping
The 3540 MO divides each full step into 64 microsteps, providing 12,800 steps
per revolution for precise positioning and smooth motion.
Connecting the Motor
STEP motors have 4, 6 or 8 leads , these are
wired to 4 connections on the drive in various
combinations.
Motors will perform differently according the
way it is connected, to find out more about the
differnet way of connecting your motor , see the
technotes or FAQs on our website.
Warning: When connecting
the motor to the driver, be
sure that the motor power
supply is off. Secure any
unused motor leads so that
they can’t short to anything.
Never disconnect the motor
while the drive. Never con-
nect motor leads to ground
or to a power supply!

Tach Output
The Tach Out signal is provided for measuring the motor speed. It generates
100 pulses per revolution, so if you connect a frequency counter, the speed
reads out in revs/second with two decimal places. The schematic diagram of
the Tach Out optoisolation circuit is shown below.
Do not connect the Tach output to more than 24VDC.
The current into the Tach+ terminal must not exceed 20 mA.

Connecting Digital Inputs and Limit Switches
You must supply 5-24 volts DC to supply current to the LEDs on the input side
of the opto-isolators.Your controlling logic must be capable of sinking or sourc-
ing at least 3 mA at 5 volts and 10 mA at 24 volts to control each drive input.
Sinking Circuits (NPN) - If your output devices prefer to sink current, then
connect the COM terminal to your positive power supply. If you are using a
TTL circuit to drive the 3540 MO, connect the COM terminal to your 5 volt bus.
No ground connection is needed. If you are using a PLC or proximity sensor,
you’ll need a power supply.
Sourcing circuits (PNP) - If your output devices can only source current (some
PLC outputs are this way), connect the COM terminal to the ground of the DC
power supply that powers your output circuits Note: We refer to an input as
being ON when current is flowing through the input. A signal is OFF when no
current is flowing. An input is OFF when COM and the input terminal are at the
same voltage, or when the input is left unconnected (open).
The ENABLE input allows the user to turn off the current to the motor by
setting this signal on. The logic circuitry continues to operate, so the drive
“remembers” the step position even when the amplifiers are disabled. If you
have no need to disable the amplifiers, you don’t need to connect anything to
the ENABLE input.
