    Introduction
    The DPY50611 is a single-axis 5A bipolar microstep driver/controller containing 2 kbytes of non-
    volatile stored programming space, quadrature encoder feedback, and a 125W power supply, all 
    enclosed in a package.  It provides fl exible, independent control of bipolar stepper motors with 
    a current range from 0.5 to 5.0 amps/phase with microstepping resolutions from 200 steps per 
    revolution to 12,800 steps per revolution from a computer, or any machine controller with a se-
    rial port.  It is also capable of standalone operation, making it an embedded machine controller.  
    The easy to use Windows software, SMC60WIN, can be used to directly control motion and to 
    program the DPY50611.  The DPY50611 also has the ability for real time functions.
    The DPY50611 has 40 commands, which are easy-to-remember for direct movement of the step-
    per motor and communicates via an USB data bus.  A windows driver is provided to communicate 
    with the DPY50611 through a virtual comport from the PC.  This driver will turn any USB port into 
    a virtual comport, thus enabling simple serial programs to send information to the DPY50611.  To 
    use the SMC60WIN software, the virtual comport driver must be installed.  Special functions of 
    the controller include 8 programmable open collector outputs and 6 TTL, CMOS and 24V compat-
    ible inputs, a quadrature encoder input with the ability to autocorrect, an analog input to control 
    either maximum speed or absolute position, registration mark indexing during a slew command, 
    an output that will trigger during an index command at an absolute position, and a thumbwheel 
    input for indexing a motor.  The DPY50611 can be powered from 90-135VAC, 50/60Hz.
    Section 1:
    Description
    The driver in the DPY50611 (MBC05641) is a microstep motor driver that can drive motors rated from 
    0.5 to 5.0 amps/phase.  It can handle 4, 6 and 8-lead motors in a bipolar fashion.  The DPY50611’s 
    driver features motor current ON/OFF capabilities and a Reduced Current Enable to automatically 
    reduces motor current to 50% of the set value after the last step is made (20msec delay).  With the 
    DPY50611, various step resolutions can be implemented by the onboard dip switch.  These divisions 
    range from 200 steps per revolution to 12,800 steps per revolution.  Protection devices have been 
    added to this driver for short circuit and open circuit conditions.  The driver has built-in features to 
    indicate power on (Green LED), Clocks being received (Yellow LED) and fault conditions (Red LED).
    The controller in the DPY50611 (PCL601USB) provides independent programming of acceleration/
    deceleration, base speed (start up speed), max speed (running speed), jog speed, and the number of 
    steps to be taken in both relative and absolute positioning modes.  On absolute positioning moves, the 
    DPY50611 automatically determines the proper direction to go and the number of steps to take.  The 
    relative positioning will move a number of steps in the direction that the user defi nes.  The DPY50611 
    also has specifi c functions such as encoder feedback, autocorrection, index-on-the-fl y and output-on-
    the-fl y.   An analog input can be used to set either the maximum speed or go to an absolute position 
    based between the upper and lower programmable limits.  A seven decade thumbwheel switch can 
    be read for relative indexing.  The DPY50611 also has a high level programming command set that 
    includes: branching, looping conditional statements, time delays, text strings, and I/O which the user 
    can use in the programming mode to fully control all machine functionality.  A home input, a set of 
    bidirectional hard and soft limit switch inputs and bidirectional jog inputs are provided for each axis.  
    These features are generally required in most machine control designs.  6 testable TTL, CMOS and 
    24V compatible inputs and 8 programmable open-collector outputs are provided per axis.  The I/O 
    may be used for monitoring and controlling machine operation and/or interaxis coordination.  The 
    I/O are accessible independent of the busy state of the axis controls.  The DPY50611 has a built-in 
    programmable reset circuit.  Reset is automatic on power-up, or by pressing the external reset button.

    Motor Selection
    The DPY50611 incorporates a Bipolar Microstep Driver that is compatible with both Bipolar and 
    Unipolar Motor Confi gurations,  (i.e. 8 and 4 lead motors, and 6 lead tapped motors).
    Step motors with low current ratings and high inductance will perform better at low speeds, pro-
    viding higher low-end torque.  Motors with high current ratings and low inductance will perform 
    better at higher speeds, providing more high-end torque.
    Since the DPY50611 is a constant current source, it is not necessary to use motor that is rated 
    at the same voltage as the supply voltage.  What is important is that the driver is set to the ap-
    propriate current level based on the motor being used.  Refer to the following chart for setting the 
    current potentiometer based on the current code in the part number of the motor.  Examples of 
    motor part numbers are shown below.  Anaheim Automation offers a comprehensive live of step 
    motors in 14, 17, 23, 34 and 42 frame sizes.  Contact the factory to verify motor compatibility 
    with the DPY50611.

    Setting the Output Current
    The output current on the DPY50611 is set by an onboard potentiometer.  This potentiometer 
    determines the per phase peak output current of the driver.  The relationship between the output 
    current and the potentiometer value is as follows.
    Peak Current Potentiometer Setting Peak Current Potentiometer Setting
    0.5A 0% 3.0A 60%
    0.6A 10% 3.5A 70%

    Refer to Table 5 for specifi c motor current settings.
    Table 6: Microstep selection on switch 1.
    Table 7: Potentiometer values with respect to the output current. 
    						
    							September 2012 L01019510 Reducing Output Current
    Reducing the output current is accomplished by setting switch 1 of the DIP switch to the ON position 
    and occurs approximately 1 second after the last positive going edge of the step clock input.  The 
    amount of current per phase in the reduction mode is approximately 50% of the set current.  When 
    the current reduction circuit is activated, the current reduction resistor is paralleled with the current 
    adjustment potentiometer.  This lowers the total resistance value, and thus lowers the per Phase 
    output current.
    Determining Output Current
    The output current for the motor used when microstepping is determined differently from that of a 
    full/half step unipolar driver.  In the DPY50611, a sine/cosine output function is used in rotating the 
    motor.  The output current for a given motor is determined by the motors current and the wiring con-
    fi guration of the motor.  There is a current adjustment potentiometer used to set the output current 
    of the DPY50611.  This sets the peak output current of the sine/cosine waves.  The specifi ed motor 
    current (which is the unipolar value) is multiplied by a factor of 1.0, 1.4, or 2.0 depending on the motor 
    confi guration (series, half-coil, or parallel).
    Step Motor Confi gurations
    Step motors can be confi gured as 4, 6, or 8 leads.  Each confi guration requires different currents.  
    Refer to the lead confi gurations and the procedures to determine their output current.
    Warning! 
    Step motors will run hot even when confi gured correctly.  Damage may occur to the motor if a 
    higher than specifi ed current is used.
    6 Lead Motors
    When confi guring a 6 lead motor in a half-coil confi guration (connected from one end of the 
    coil to the center tap), multiply the specifi ed per Phase (or unipolar) current rating by 1.4 to de-
    termine the current setting potentiometer value.  This confi guration will provide more torque at 
    higher speeds when compared to the series confi guration.
    When confi guring the motor in a series confi guration (connected from end to end with the cen-
    ter tap fl oating) use the specifi ed per phase (or unipolar) current rating to determine the current 
    setting potentiometer value.
