Applied Motion Products STAC5 User guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the STAC5 Quick Setup Guide, which details the setup process for the STAC5-120 and STAC5-220 stepper motor drives. This document covers initial requirements, software installation and hardware connections, featuring motor and power wiring, and I/O connections. It also explains the configuration via software ST Configurator. I'm ready to help with your questions about this device.
  • What software is used to configure the drive?
    What type of network cable is required?
    What are the AC voltage requirements for STAC5-120 and STAC5-220?
STAC5 Quick Setup Guide
Requirements
▪A compatible stepper motor.
▪A small at blade screwdriver for tightening the connectors (included).
▪A personal computer running Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, Windows: 7/8/10/11.
▪ST Congurator™ version 3.4.8 or higher software, available at www.applied-motion.com/products/software.
▪For Q models, Q Programmer software (available at www.applied-motion.com).
▪A CAT5 network cable (not included).
▪For more detailed information, please download and read the STAC5 Hardware Manual, available at
www.applied-motion.com/support/manuals.
To begin, make sure you have the following equipment:
Step 1
a) Download and install the ST Congurator™ and, for -Q models, the Q
Programmer™ software. (Q Programmer™ is included in current instal-
lations of ST Congurator™)
b) Launch the software by clicking:
Start / Programs / Applied Motion Products / ST Congurator
c) Connect the drive to your network or PC using a standard CAT5 cable.
d) Select an appropriate IP address using the rotary switch on the STAC5.
For more information about network congurations and IP addressing,
please consult the STAC5 Hardware Manual.
Step 2
a) Wire the drive to the AC power source.
(do not apply power until all connections to the drive have been made)
Note, the STAC5-120 accepts AC voltages from 94-135 VAC,
while the STAC5-220 accepts AC voltages from 94-265 VAC.
The STAC5-120 contains an internal 8A fast acting fuse. The STAC5-220 contains an internal 3.5A fast acting fuse. If an external
fuse is desired, we recommend a 6A fast acting fuse for the 120V STAC5 and a 3 amp fast acting fuse for the 220V version.

includes a self test option (under the Drive menu) to verify that the
motor and power supply are correctly wired and congured.
c) For Q models, use Q Programmer™ to build and test your program.

Connect the drive to the motor. If you are
using one of the recomended Applied Mo-
tion motors, connect the motor in parallel
to the STAC5-120 and in series to the
STAC5-220, as shown below.
Be sure to connect the motor case ground
to the STAC5 ground terminal.
For a non-Applied Motion Products motor,
please refer to your motor specs for wiring
information.
For Applied Motion Products motors with
dierent wire colors, obtain wiring dia-
grams from www.applied-motion.com or
contact technical support.
