Hyperterminal settings are all correct, but not seeing anything on the PC?

Filed under: Stepper Motors — mota @ 9:46 pm

When all of your hyperterminal settings are correct, and you’re using the Oriental Motor communication cable, but you still can’t communicate through your PC’s COM port, you should check to ensure that your I/O has power. This is true for Alpha Step Plus Stepper Motor/Driver packages and the EMP_Series_programmable controller.

Do not use 5VDC and 24VDC at the same time on your power supply for your control signal pins.

- What is the detent torque of a VEXTA stepper? February 21, 2007
  The detent torque value of a VEXTA stepper is about 3% of the Holding Torque value but Oriental Motor does not specify the value. It is just a rule of thumb.

- Change the wires to reverse the direction of a 2-phase stepper motor. November 1, 2006
  Sometimes it’s necessary to mount a stepper motor in a different orientation, or the opposite direction is needed at the motor, but there is no access to the driver control – given the same pulse and direction signals. Using 6 lead wire unipolar driver, how do I change the wires around to accomplish this? A: The A-phase lead-wires are normally Black, […] […]
