Stepnet AC is a compact, AC powered microstepping drive for control of hybrid stepping motors. It operates as a stand-alone driver taking Pulse/Direction or CW/CCW inputs from an external controller or as a distributed drive on a CANopen control network. In Servo mode a stepper with encoder operates as a brushless servo motor in position, velocity, or torque modes.

  • Command Interface: Step/Direction or CW/CCW inputs, CANopen, ASCII, discrete I/O, ±10 Vdc velocity/torque (Servo Mode), PWM velocity & torque (Servo Mode)
  • Communications: CANopen/Devicenet, RS-232
  • Feedback: Digital Quad A/B encoder, Differential or single-ended, Secondary encoder / buffered encoder out
  • I/O - Digital: 12 inputs, 4 outputs, Two high-speed inputs configurable as differential or single-ended
  • Dimensions: 146 x 119 x 55 [5.73 x 4.7 x 2.17]
