Motion Control drivers and motors

[bruce_miranda]

The motors came with long enough wires to reach the drivers directly so used them itself.

They are wired as per the Motion Control wiring diagram.

Blue+Red to A+
Blue/White + Red/White to A-
Green+Black to B+
Green/White + Black/White to B-

Is there a way I can figure out if the wiring is indeed correct or not ?

The wiring diagram for the motor is missing information. The colour coding shows A and A again rather than A and A'. About as useful as a chocolate teapot.

If the table is in sequence A,A',B,B' etc and the coils are shown the right way round then you are wired cackamamie.

I suggest you halve the current then disconnect one coil on either side.

If it vibrates forwards/backwards you're only driving one side. If it purrs around you had one or more of the disconnected coils in backwards.

When you have it purring, reconnect the other two coils by trial and error so it still purrs :D

Try a DMM and then wire them one way or the other...not both!

Attached is a wiring diagram I sent someone else here.....hth

Isn't this the Series connection? What I want is a parellel connection so how will that look like?
