8 Lead Motors
Series Connection: When configuring the motor windings in series, use the per phase (or unipolar)
current rating to determine the current setting potentiometer value.
Parallel Connection: When configuring the motor windings in parallel, multiply the per phase (or unipolar)
current rating by 2.0 to determine the current setting potentiometer value.
Note: After the current has been determined, according to the motor connections above, use the potenti-
ometer setting...

Functions
Max1/Max2 Input: This inputs is used to select the specified speed profile. These inputs are used in
conjunction with the Run input. Max1 selects profile 1 and Max2 selects profile 2.
Run: Triggering this input will cause the pulse generator to start. The pulse generator will use the selected
speed profile and start at base speed and ramp up to max speed.  The motor will run at max speed  until
the stop/run is released. If the pulse generator is running at max speed when...

Direct mode is used to directly control the motion for real time movements through serial communication.
The pulse generator has 14 commands which are easy to remember for direct movement of a step motor.
COM Port Settings
Baud Rate:38400
Parity:None
Data Bits:8
Stop Bits:1
Flow Control:Xon/Xoff
Unit Selection
In order to select a unit the @ command followed by 0 (address of the unit) must be sent.
NOTE: There should be no spaces between the @ and the 0.
How to select the unit:

$ - Version Number Register
Format : $
Description: This command requests the pulse generator to return the version number.
! -  Error Codes Register
Format : !
Description: This command requests the pulse generator to get the current error code and print
it to the screen.
A - Acceleration/Deceleration
Format: A#_[value] - where # is the speed profile number 1 or 2
Sample: @0A1_255 Accel of profile 1 equals 255
Description: This command sets the acceleration profile which can be...

D - Decceleration Option
Format: D# - where # is 0 or 1
Description: This command enables the pulse generator to ramp down to base speed before
stopping when using the external Run/Stop input.  A 1 will enable the pulses to
ramp down to base speed and stop, and a 0 will disable ramp down causing the
pulse generator to hard stop at maximum speed. This value is saved in the EEProm
for standalone use.
E - Analog Input Option

M -  Max Speed
Format: M#_[value] - where # is the speed profile number 1 or 2
Sample: @0M2_10000 Max Speed of profile 2 equals 10000
Description: This command sets the maximum (running) speed for motion. This value must be
set before motion begins and be equal or greater than the base speed. The motor
will run at this speed until a soft limit or a hard limit is triggered. This speed is used
when the analog inputs is disabled. These values are saved in the EEProm for
standalone...

V - Verify
Description: This command can be used with the listed commands to verify the register
contents. Valid Commands are: A, B, C, D, E, L, M, R, and U.
Format: V[command]
This format is used for C, D, E, and R.
C - If a 1 is sent back then the driver is in reduced current mode.  If a 0 is sent back
then the driver is not in reduced current mode.
D - If a 1 is sent back then the pulse generator will ramp down to stop when the Run/
Stop input is released.  If a 0 is sent back...
