current reduction (DIP-switch 4)
Use the DIP switch 4 to set the automatic current reduction. If the DIP switch is set to ON
the automatic current reduction is deactivated. DIP switch in state OFF means that the
current is set to 50% of the motor current if the motor standstill.
0% reduction (deactivated)
If the holding torque is sufficient, the activated automatic current
reduction is recommended.
In delivery status the automatical current reduction is activated
(DIP 4 = OFF).
Step resolution (DIP-switch 5, 6, 7, 8)
Use the DIP switches 5, 6, 7 and 8 to set the step resolution. Setting the factor to a higher
value causes a smooth motion of the motor but the maximum reachable velocity will taking
down. Also the motor torque will be reduced to 75% in microstep mode. The following table
shows the DIP switch settings for the different step resolutions:
steps/ rev. (1,8 ° motor)
The Factory set of the step resolution is 800 steps/rev for all
motor power amplifiers.
