Re: stepper wiring

Hi,

The motor windings are center-tapped. Three wires per winding, 6
total. Here's the color code:

Winding 1:

Red: End Wire
Black: Center tap
Red/Wht: End Wire

Winding 2:

Green: End wire
White: Center tap
Grn/Wht: End Wire


It sounds like bipolar drive. Connect power supply Ground to "-"
Connect end wires or end wire and center tap of one winding to "motor
A", the other winding to "motor B". Power supply to "+".

I know the motor wiring but have never heard of these drives so use
my suggestions with caution.
