Wiring a 4th axis - SOLVED

Hi all

I'm adding a powered rotary table to my unit and am going to use outputs from my MX3660 (their suggested wiring diagram attached below) but it seems a bit strange to me so am looking for clarification.

1st my power supply is 48v dc which it says my driver can take (driver is a DRIVERstepper online ) which seems to be a clone of the leadshine ( Manual here ). I've screen shotted a connection diagram and attached it too.

So my question is that the suggested wiring diagram seems strange to me. Can I just hook it direct to my PSU then wire the inputs to the out puts on my MX3660 similar to the third attachment or do I need to use resistors. If so what size resistors as my voltage is double what is described on the manual.

Cheers all in advance

Sorted.

This diagram explains it loads better

I personally like the Oposit more
GET the ENA + DIR+ Step + to 5V Fix
and let the controller be the GND Sinalisation
Gives you way more speed
Also more Sfafty NO steplos as pulsing is more stable

I kept with this purely as it's whats in the manual. My electronics skills are pretty average.

on most Break Out Boards the Outputs are Standard High
so at Drivers Set up like Yours they will all step at Power On
Therefore the system to Ground means on Power up Plus meets Plus so no Action

Up to You it works both Way
