Item Details
10A-USB
Controller/driver only (without motors). Normally you will purchase the integrated motor/controller.This unit is the same as described for the integrated motor/controllers pages, but usually comes with a 5 pin connector. Select this controller to drive unipolar stepper motors that are size 23 (57mm) or smaller. The 10A-USB can drive up to 10 amps burst, 3 normally. These controllers are microminiature and exceptionally small, see the motor/controller drawings for dimensions. Select this controller for the most economical solution. Serial USART is +5 volt USB with mini-USB female connector. Includes a standard mini-USB--female type-A cable.
This controller runs "right out of the box" by typing a \'w\' then \'G\'. Each Excitron controller includes all the electronics and drivers for running the stepper motor. There are no separate electronic boxes and no messy cables. Included here is a full range of details of our motor/controller family.
You easily control how your stepper motor operates in these modes:
• Serial Command Mode: send and receive via USB. Connection with PCs, PLCs or Labview work well.
• Standalone Motion Profile Mode: repeatedly run a sequence of motion profiles, exactly as you wish, upon powerup. In this case, your computer is not needed. You can use inputs to control how and when these profiles run.
• Input Profile Mode: each of up to 3 input pins trigger 3 motion profiles each, giving you random selection of motion by simply pushing buttons.
• Driver (CNC step/dir) Mode: motor steps each time when an external STEP occurs, in the direction set by DIRECTION.
