ST5/10-Si Quick Setup Guide
Requirements
To begin, make sure you have the following equipment:
- A compatible stepper motor.
- A small flat blade screwdriver for tightening the connectors (included).
- A personal computer running Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, Me, 2000, XP, Vista, 7/8/10/11.
- Si ProgrammerTM software, available at: http://www.applied-motion.com
- An Applied Motion programming cable (included).
- For more detailed information, please download and read the ST5/10-QSiC Hardware Manual, available at www.applied-motion.com/support/manuals.
Step 1
a) Download and install the Si Programmer™ software.
b) Launch the software by clicking: Start / Programs / Applied Motion Products
/ Si Programmer
c) Connect the drive to your PC using the appropriate programming cable.
Step 2
Warning – If you are using a non-Applied Motion motor, do not connect the
motor until after you have configured the drive for your motor. Refer to Step
5.
a) Wire the drive to the DC power source.
(do not apply power until all connections to the drive have been made)
Note, the ST5-Si accepts DC voltages from 24-48V, while the ST10-Si accepts DC
voltages from 24-80V.
b) Ensure a proper earth ground connection by using the screw on the left side
of the chassis.
If using an external fuse, we recommend the following:
ST5-Si: 7 amp fuse, fast acting.
ST10-Si: 7 amp fuse, fast acting.
See the ST5/10-QSiC Hardware Manual for more information about power supply
and fuse selection.
Step 3
Connect the drive to the motor. Four lead motors can be connected in only one
way, as shown in Figure 1.
We recommend that eight lead motors be connected in parallel, as shown in
Figure 2.
If using a non-Applied Motion Products motor, please refer to your motor specs
for wiring information.
Step 4
Step 5
a) Apply power to the drive.
b) The Si ProgrammerTM software can be used to configure and program the drive
for operation. Once an Si program has been constructed and downloaded to the
drive, the program can be executed stand-alone at power-up or from an external
trigger.
