General Description
The MDC300-120151 Driver is designed to drive DC brushless motors at currents of up to 15A peak and 
170VDC.  Using hall sensor feedback, a constant velocity mode can be sel\
ected.  The driver is protected 
against over current (cycle-by-cycle or latched), hall sensor error and under voltage.  When an error occurs, 
a fault light notifies the user.  If the fault latch is enabled and an error occurs, the fault output goes low to 
notify the user.  Included on the driver is an internal...

 
Pin Descriptions
The inputs on the MDC300-120151 are optically isolated with the anode (+) and cathode (-) both broug\
ht 
out to the user.  With no current going through the Direction, Freewheel, and Run/Stop opto-diodes, the 
input is considered high.  To enable the motor to Run, current must go through the Run/Stop input opto-
diode.  To Freewheel (remove energy from the motor) the motor, current must go through the Freewheel 
input opto-diode.  To enable the input a minimum of 1.0 mA needs to be...

Open Loop/Closed Loop (Constant Velocity Mode)
The driver can either be set for Open Loop or Closed Loop operation.  Open Loop operation is used for 
applications where the speed of the motor needs to change according to the load.  In Open Loop opera-
tion, typically the greater the load, the speed of the motor decreases. Closed Loop operation is used 
for applications where speed regulation is needed. Under closed loop operation, the speed is regulated 
despite changes to the load and the power supply...

Motor Direction
The motor direction feature allows the changing of the rotation of the motor.  This input should not be 
changed while maximum speed is in progress.  The direction can be controlled two different ways.  
When AUTO DIRECTION switch (Switch Panel 1, SW3) in the OFF Position:
A high (open) input causes the motor to turn in the CW direction, while\
 a low at this input causes the mo-
tor to turn in the CCW direction.
When AUTO DIRECTION switch (Switch Panel 1, SW3) in the ON Position:
A 0 to...
