STM17R Quick Setup Guide
Requirements
A small at blade screwdriver for conguring the DIP switches (included).
DC Power Source, 12-48VDC
For more detailed information, please download and read the STM17R Hardware Manual, available at www.applied-motion.com/support/manuals.
To begin, make sure you have the following equipment:
Step 1
Connect the drive to the DC power source. The STM17R will accept DC
power from 12-48VDC.
Per the diagram at the right, connect the red wire to the positive output
terminal on the power supply, typically marked V+, and the black wire to
the negative terminal, typically marked V-.
(Do not apply power until all connections to the drive have been made)
Step 2
Connect input signals to the drive. STEP and
DIR are required, EN and OUT are optional.
See the STM17R Hardware Manual for circuit
connection details and examples.

Set the motor’s idle current using switch 3.
This is the percentage of running current that the motor will use when
the shaft is not rotating. Choose 90% for maximum holding torque or 50%
to reduce motor heating.

Optionally, you can test motor operation by activating switch 4 to initiate a
self test move.
The self test move continually rotates the motor forward and backward
2-1/2 revolutions.

Select the load-to-motor inertia ratio category using switch 7.
This is the ratio of the effective load inertia to the motor’s own rotor inertia.
For high inertia loads choose 5-10X, and for low inertia loads choose 0-4X.
Setting the proper range for the load will improve motor smoothness.
