CENTENT(DOCS) Optical Printer Control System CENTENT(DOCS) NAME centent - centent stepper motor drive wiring CENTENT MOTOR WIRING -------------------- These pinouts are straight out of the Centent CNO143 manual. Quothe the Centent docs: "One motor winding connects to T3 and T4, while the other winding connects to T5 and T6. The step motor drive will operate 4, 6, and 8 wire motors. The 6 and 8 wwire motors may be wired in either a series (low power) or parallel (hi power) configuration. For 8 wire motors, follow the manufacturer's hookup diagrams for series or parallel operation." (See below) In the following table, T3, T4, T5 and T6 refer to the numbered terminals on the drive. Colors indicate the wire colors that come off the motor shown. *** SERIES WIRING - CNO-143 *** Manufacturer T3 T4 T5 T6 ----------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Superior Electric GRN/WHT GRN RED RED/WHT Rapidsyn GRN/WHT GRN RED RED/WHT IMC GRN/WHT GRN RED RED/WHT Sigma YEL RED BLK ORN Oriental Motor BLU RED BLK GRN Portescap YEL/WHT RED ORN/WHT BRN Bodine YEL RED BRN ORN Digital Motor YEL RED BLK ORN Warner RED YEL ORN BRN Japan Servo YEL GRN BLU RED *** PARALLEL WIRING - CNO-143 *** Manufacturer T3 T4 T5 T6 ----------------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Superior Electric WHT GRN RED BLK Rapidsyn WHT GRN RED BLK IMC WHT GRN RED BLK Sigma RED/YEL RED ORN/BLK ORN Oriental Motor BLU WHT YEL GRN Portescap RED/WHT RED ORN/WHT ORN Bodine RED/WHT RED ORN/WHT ORN Digital Motor RED/WHT RED BLK BLK/WHT Warner RED WHT ORN BLK Japan Servo WHT GRN BLU WHT ♀ FIELD WIRING NOTES ------------------ These are actual wiring diagrams I've used in the field. These are NOT from the Centent docs; use at own risk. Although these work, double check manufacturer's recommended wiring; see SLOSYN(DOCS) man page ('man slosyn') for info. *** SERIES (LO POWER) *** *** CENTENT CNO-143 WIRING *** Superior Ele.

Also, WHT/BLK and ORN are similarly tied together.
