of the U-chassis. Once the drivers are mounted on the
power module, they become fully self-contained units
without any need of external components. The outputs are
lead wires that can be wired directly to the screw terminal
connector available on the driver modules. This simplifies
the installation and saves wiring time.
Integral motor and logic power supplies
The motor and logic power supplies required to operate the
stepping motors and associated control logic are both
incorporated in one unit. This eliminates the need to install
and wire two different power supplies to separately
mounted driver modules. The motor power is unregulated
DC voltage; while the logic power is a fully regulated DC
output that is maintained within tight regulation (± 0.25V)
over a large range of input AC voltage.
Input taps to match actual line voltages
As the motor power is unregulated, it tends to vary with
the input line voltage. For example, if a high line is
applied at the 120VAC tap, the motor output voltage may
exceed the safe operating limit of the driver and cause
damage. The taps are provided so that in high line
locations, the output voltage can be kept within the safe
operating limit by using the corresponding tap. The logic
power is regulated and is not affected by the input line
voltage over a wide range (95VAC to 135VAC when
connected to 120VAC tap).
Models to drive one or two motors
The single motor drives are commonly used. However, in a
multi axis-control application, the dual driver models are a
very cost effective and space saving alternative. In the single
