Connecting mesa 7i96s to DM542T

I searched and got some idea about the wiring

I want each termial for a stepper motor to be as independent as possible from the other motors.

Please see the attached wiring 

Good day

Philip

 

For a DM542, I would wire:

DRIVE      7I96S

STEP+      +5V
DIR+        +5V
STEP-        STEP-
DIR-          DIR-
ENA+       NC
ENA-        NC


 

yes

It is working. But I used large motor with DQ860HA driver. 

My first machine was in 2021 working with bob.

this is the first mesa 

Good day

Hi PWC,

What is NC, please? I have looked through the layout, there is a NC mark in TB2 ANALOG:



This is for my own understanding, I am not using this driver. My driver is CL57T which also has Enable pin.

Thank you. 

 

NC means no connection, so don't connect the ENA pins.

Also make sure that the CL57 is set for 5V inputs
