POWER34DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION
BILEVEL DRIVER
The basic function of a motor driver is to provide the rated motor phase current
to the motor windings in the shortest possible time. The bilevel driver uses a
high voltage to get a rapid rate of current rise in the motor windings in the least
amount of time. When reaching the preset trip current, the driver turns off the
high voltage and sustains the current from the low voltage supply.
EXCITATION MODE SELECT 
Users have a choice of dual-phase, full-step operation or half-step operation.
Dual-phase, full-step operation occurs by energizing two phases at a time,
rotating a typical motor 1.8 degrees per step.  Half-step operation occurs by
alternately energizing one, and then two, phases at  a time, rotating the motor
0.9 degrees per step. Full-step operation is only suggested for applications that
specifically require that mode, such as when retrofitting existing full-step
systems.
STEP AND  DIRECTION CONTROL
The Clock Output of the AA2876 Pulse Generator is pre-wired to the Clock Input
of the driver board through the red molex connector.  Terminal 5 is the Direction
Input. A  Logic 1 on this input selects Clockwise motor direction.  A Logic 0
on this input selects Counterclockwise direction.
+5V POWER SUPPLY
This power supply is capable of supplying up to 1.0A to other devices or
circuitry.  The +12V unregulated voltage may also be used for supplying current
to external loads up to 1.5Amps.  These outputs can only source a combined
total of 1.5 Amps max.
 
MOTOR ON/OFF INPUT
The Motor On/Off input allows for de-energizing a motor without disturbing the
positioning logic.  After re-energizing  the  motor, a routine can continue. This
reduces motor heating and conserves power, especially in applications where
motors are stopped for long periods and no holding torque is required.
ADJUSTING KICK CURRENT
By following the silkscreen markings on the cover, use a small screwdriver to
adjust the potentiometer. Line up the arrow to the number corresponding to the
motors rated current (amps/phase).  The kick current is preset for 40 percent
over the motors rated amps/phase. 
FAULT PROTECTION 
There are three types of fault detection.  When a fault is detected, the driver
turns off the motor current and the red Fault LED indicates which type of fault
occured. FUNCTIONJP1JP2JP3

FIGURE 1: JUMPER LOCATIONS. FAULT PROTECTION
There are three types of fault detection.  When a fault is detected, the driver
turns off the motor current and the red Fault LED indicates which type of fault
occurred.  See the Troubleshooting section for more information.
CONDITIONFAULT DETECTED
 1LED - Slow Blinkshorted wire in the motor or cable 
 2LED - Fast Blinkopen wire in the motor or cable
 3LED - ON Steadyground fault (voltage shorted to 0V)
 TABLE 1: TYPE(S) OF FAULT(S) 
If the driver goes into a fault condition, the fault may be reset by turning the
power OFF for at least 15 seconds, or by pulling the RESET FAULT input
(terminal 4) to a Logic “0 for at least 100ms. 
  
						

							56PULSE GENERATOR
The DPS32PG1 contains the AA2876 linear ramping pulse generator (PG).  The
AA2876 has adjustable BASE and MAX speeds and independent adjustments
for acceleration (ramping up) and deceleration (ramping down).  The AA2876
also has a VCO Input where the frequency produced is proportional to the
voltage on this input.  The pulse output is an open collector NPN sinking output.
SPEED RANGES 
The AA2876 has an adjustable BASE speed (starting speed) and an adjustable
MAX speed (running speed).  There are two speed ranges that are jumper
selectable.  For the low speed range, the BASE speed can be adjusted from 50
pulses/sec to 500 pulses/sec and the MAX speed can be adjusted from 50
pulses/sec to 5,000 pulses/sec.  For the high speed range, the BASE speed can
be adjusted from 200 pulses/sec to 2,000 pulses/sec and the MAX speed can be
adjusted from 200 pulses/sec to 20,000 pulses/sec.  Note: it is possible to have
a MAX speed that is lower than the BASE speed.  The BASE speed
potentiometer is onboard; the MAX speed  potentiometer is external (mounted
on bracket).
RAMPING
There are separate adjustments for acceleration and deceleration.  The ramp
times are adjustable from 50 milliseconds to 1.0 seconds.  This is the time it
takes to ramp from the lowest BASE speed to the highest MAX speed.  In terms
of  acceleration units, the accel/decel rates are adjustable from 5,000 to 100,000
steps/sec on the low speed range and 20,000 to 400,000 steps/sec on the high 2           2
speed range.
INPUTS (See Operating Modes)
STOP/RUN - When this input is open or Logic 1, the PG is stopped and will not
output any pulses.  When this input is pulled low to a logic 0, the PG will output
pulses at the BASE speed rate if the BASE/MAX input is left open, or logic 1.
If both the STOP/RUN and the BASE/MAX inputs are at a logic 0, the PG will
ramp up and output pulses at the MAX speed rate.  This input is only used in the
two-input operation.
BASE/MAX - This input has two functions.  In the Two-input operation, this input
selects either BASE speed (Logic 1) or MAX speed (Logic 0).  When this
input changes, the PG will ramp from one speed to the other.
In the Single-input operation, this input is used to start and stop the PG (Logic
1=stop, Logic 0=run). Upon starting, the PG will start running at BASE speed
but immediately ramp up to the MAX speed and keep running at the Max speed
while this input is logic 0.  When this input goes back to logic 1, the PG will
either stop immediately, or it will ramp down and stop when it reaches BASE
speed (depending on the JP2 setting).  With Single-input operation, the PG only
uses BASE speed as a starting speed;  it cannot run at BASE speed for a long
durationation of time. 
FIGURE 2: DPS32PG1 HOOK-UP Note: the STOP/RUN input is NOT used with Single-input operation.
VCO IN - A voltage (0 to 4.9Vdc) can be fed into this input instead of using the
MAX speed remote POT.  The AA2876 will produce a frequency that is
proportional to the voltage on this input.  To use this input, the BASE/MAX input
must be pulled to a Logic 0 and the MAX Speed POT disconnected.  Please
Note: the PG will start at BASE speed (set by the BASE speed POT) and ramp
to the frequency determined by the voltage fed into the VCO Input.  In most
cases, it is best to set the BASE speed POT to the lowest setting when using the
VCO Input.  See Figure 6.
LIMITING THE MAX SPEED
In some applications, it may be necessary to limit the MAX speed so that the
operator does not run the machine or system too fast.  The MAX Speed Limit
potentiometer can be adjusted to limit the top speed. This only affects the MAX
speed; the BASE speed is unaffected.

(see paragraph on +5VDC OUTPUT)
+12VDC unregulated output: 1.5 Amps maximum *
* No more than 1.5A total can be drawn from both of
 these outputs simultaneously.If a Fault occurs, reset the Fault by applying a Logic “0 to the Reset Fault
Input (terminal 4) for at least 100ms (or by cycling power OFF for at least 15
seconds).  After resetting, try to run the motor again.  If the driver faults
again, check the conditions listed below.
Is the LED blinking Slowly?
This indicates that the motor has a phase shorted or there is a short in the
motor cable or wiring.  Check the motor and the wiring for shorts. If the driver
continues to sense “shorts” after the motor and wiring are determined to be
good, then the output transistors should be checked (see below).
Is the LED blinking Quickly? 
This indicates that there is an open connection in one of the motor wires. 
Check the motor and the wiring for opens.  Another condition that may cause
this type of fault is when a large motor is ramped down too quickly so that it
loses it’s positioning.
Is the LED on Steadily?
This indicates that there is a ground fault - a voltage shorted to 0V.  This
detection is useful in detecting a short-to-case in a motor when the motor’s
case AND the driver’s 0V are both connected to earth ground.  Excessive
noise on the 0V line may also cause the driver to sense this type of fault. 
This type of fault sensing may be disabled by placing jumper JP3 in position
“1-2 (see figure 3A).  NOTE: IF THE GROUND FAULT DETECTION IS
DISABLED, DO NOT CONNECT THE DRIVER’S 0V TO EARTH GROUND!
Checking Output Transistors1.Set the multimeter to Diode Test.
2.Place the RED meter lead on (between) the Sense Resistors (labeled Rs
in Figure 4).
3Touch the BLACK meter lead to each phase (terminals 1, 2, 12, and 13).
4.This should give readings between 0.450V and 0.550V.
5.If any  readings are significantly less than 0.450V, then the unit has been
damaged.  To send the unit in for repair, contact the factory for an RMA#.
