The pin assignment of the RS-232 connection is as follows:
| Pin | Funktion |
| 1 | NC |
| 2 | 5V |
| 3 | TXD |
| 4 | GND |
| 5 | RXD |
| 6 | NC |
DIP-SWITCHES
DIP switches 1 to 4 are used to configure the micro steps of the following dimensions:
| Mikrosteps | SW1 | SW2 | SW3 | SW4 |
| 3600 | ON | ON | ON | ON |
| 800 | OFF | ON | ON | ON |
| 1600 | ON | OFF | ON | ON |
| 3200 | OFF | OFF | ON | ON |
| 6400 | ON | ON | OFF | ON |
| 12800 | OFF | ON | OFF | ON |
| 25600 | ON | OFF | OFF | ON |
| 7200 | OFF | OFF | OFF | ON |
| 1000 | ON | ON | ON | OFF |
| 2000 | OFF | ON | ON | OFF |
| 4000 | ON | OFF | ON | OFF |
| 5000 | OFF | OFF | ON | OFF |
| 8000 | ON | ON | OFF | OFF |
| 10000 | OFF | ON | OFF | OFF |
| 20000 | ON | OFF | OFF | OFF |
| 40000 | OFF | OFF | OFF | OFF |
With the DIP switch 5 (SW5) you can set the direction of rotation of the motor. If the switch is set to ON, it rotates clockwise, if the switch is set to OFF, it rotates counterclockwise. The setting is only accepted after a restart of the unit. DIP switch 6 (SW6) is used to select whether the internal smoothing function for the input pulse signal should be activated. If the switch is set to ON, this means that the smoothing function is enabled, if it is set to OFF, the Function disabled. The setting is only accepted after a restart of the unit. DIP switch 7 (SW7) is used to select the input pulse mode. If the switch is set to ON, the PUL/DIR mode is active, if it is OFF, the CW/CCW mode is active. The setting is only accepted after a restart of the unit. With the DIP-switch 8 (SW8) you can activate or deactivate the step loss detec-tion. If the switch is set to OFF, the step loss detection is activated, if the switch is set to ON, it is deactivated. The setting is only applied after the unit has been restarted.
LED INDICATORS
A green and a red LED are installed on the motor driver to indicate the current status.
| LED status | Drive status | |
 | The green LED lights up | Drive not active |
| The green LED flashes | Drive operates normally |
 | The red and green LEDs light up | Overcurrent |
 | The red LED flashes twice and the green once | Overvoltage |
 | The red LED flashes three times and the green LED once | Incorrect internal driver voltage |
 | The red LED flashes four times and the green LED once | Tracking error exceeds the limit value |
 | The red LED flashes five times and the green LED once | Encoder phase error |
CONTROL SIGNAL CONNECTION
PUL, DIR port: Connection for pulse command
- The standard signal is pulse-shaped.
- The motor driver can receive three types of pulse command signals.
ENA-port: enable/disable
When the standard optocoupler is off, the driver outputs current to the motor. When the internal optocoupler is on, the driver cuts off the current to each pha-se of the motor, so that the motor is in a is free state and cannot react to the step pulse.
If the motor is in the wrong state, the connection enables an automatic switch-off. The level logic of the enable signal can also be set in reverse.
ALM-port: Alarm output
The ALM connector is used to output the driver’s operating status to the exter-nal control circuit. ALM outputs different optocoupler levels when the driver is in the wrong state and in normal operating state.

PC SOFTWARE
First steps
- First you need to download the PC software here and then install it on your computer.
- To control your motor driver with the PC software, you need an appropri-ate RJ-11 to SUB-D 9 connection cable.
- When selecting the cable, pay attention to the correct pin assignment. You must connect the RJ-11 plug to your motor driver and the SUB-D plug to a COM port on your PC.
- Now you can start the PC software.
- Now select the COM port to which the driver is connected and press Connect.
- When the connection has been successfully established, the status indi-cator lights up green. This should look like this.
