Configuration

 

INFORMATION: Using the ClearPath software, ensure that the motor is configured to Step and Direction mode, as shown below.

 


INFORMATION: Two motors on the same axis can be slaved in parallel by wiring the STEP and DIRECTION signals in parallel, as shown below. In most cases, to run one motor in the opposite direction, the DIRECTION positive and negative signal wires can be swapped on one of the motors.
