Digital Stepper Drive Hardware Installation Manual
configuration has the most inductance, the performance will start to degrade at higher speeds. In series mode, the motors should also be
run at only 70% of their rated current to prevent over heating.
Parallel Connections
An 8 lead motor in a parallel configuration offers a more stable, but lower torque at lower speeds. But because of the lower inductance,
there will be higher torque at higher speeds. Multiply the per phase (or unipolar) current rating by 1.96, or the bipolar current rating by
1.4, to determine the peak output current.
NEVER disconnect or connect the motor while the power source is energized.
