RS232 to RS485 for Multiple units or cables longer than 50ft
The DPE25601 can be connected to your PC serial port via a RS485 converter (model number: 
485SD9TB  sold separately).  This converter will convert the RS232 voltage signals to the com-
patible RS485 differential signals.  Only one converter box is needed per serial port.  Contact 
the factory or use the website www.anaheimautomation.com for RS485 converter information 
and sales.

Move Number of Steps: This  command  causes  the  motion  to  start  in  the  direction  last  specified.  
This command will move the motor the number of steps given.  (Range: 1 \
to 8388607)
Move to Position: The move to position command specifies the next absolute position to go to.  The 
DPE25601 controller automatically sets the direction and number of steps needed to go to that posi-
tion.  (Range: -8388607 to +8388607)
Slew:  The slew command will accelerate the motor up to maximum speed and...

Jog Inputs: The jog switch inputs are internally pulled up by a resistor making them normally +5 volts.  
To activate the input, the pin must be grounded to (0VDC).  All jog switch inputs are internally clamped to 
+5V, thus allowing voltages of up to +24VDC to be used.  Jog is a manual function.  The user can select 
the direction and speed (fast or slow) by grounding the appropriate combinations of inputs.  To jog a mo-
tor, it is necessary to ground the jog input for the direction desired.  For...

Output on the fly: This special function enables output 1 to turn on during a relative index or absolute 
move.  There are three critical portions of information needed to make this function work correctly.  First, 
output 1 will turn on (0VDC) for a preset delay of 50uS at a specific absolute position set by the 1
st output 
position  command .  Second, the output can then repeat this after a preset amount of steps set by the 
number of steps between outputs command, and third a predetermined amount...

Encoder Commands: The DPE25601 controller is capable of using a quadrature incremental encoder 
with A and B channels.
Encoder Auto Correct: This command will enable or disable the encoder feature of the DPE25601.  
When enabled, the encoder function will compare the desired position with the actual encoder position. 
If it is not in the correct position a correction move will be made.
Encoder  Delay: This  sets  the  wait  time,  which  is  a  specified  number  of  milliseconds  after  a  relative...

The SMC60WIN software is a handy utility that supports Anaheim Automation’s line of DPE25601’s 
step motor controllers.  Connecting your PC to the DPE25601, via a serial cable, the SMC60WIN 
software can easily perform the following tasks:• Exercise and monitor the DPE25601 controller
•  Write and edit stored programs for standalone operation
•  Directly communicate with the DPE25601 controller
