The DM542T stepper drivers allow current and micro-stepping control, resulting in a vast range of configurations.
Adjust the switches on the drivers for each stepper motor
Depressing switches 1 and 2 while simultaneously elevating switch 3 establishes a current of 2.69 amperes, marginally below the rated current for the stepper motors. This configuration is designed to enhance performance and extend the operational lifespan of the components.
The upwwards positioning of switch 4 ensures that only half of the designated current is provided to the stepper motors when they are at a standstill, thus preventing the potential for overheating in both the stepper motors and the associated drivers.
Elevating Switches 5 and 6 simultaneously with the downward orientation of Switches 7 and 8 configures the pulse/revolution rate to 1600, in conjunction with the ball screws, this specific arrangement ensures that the axis traverses a distance of 1mm for each full revolution accomplished by the stepper motor, with the exception of the Z axis.
Repeat for the other DM542T stepper drivers
