Introduction
The DPD75601 is a single-axis 7A unipolar step motor driver/controller containing 2 Kbytes of
nonvolatile stored programming space, quadrature encoder feedback, and a 300W transformer,
all enclosed in a package. It provides exible, independent control of unipolar stepper motors
with a current range from 1.0 to 7.0 amps in 1.8 or 0.9 degree increments from a computer, or
any machine controller with a serial port. It is also capable of standalone operation, making it an
embedded machine controller. The easy to use Windows software, SMC60WIN, can be used to
directly control motion and to program the DPD75601. The DPD75601 also has the ability for
real time functions.
The DPD75601 has 40 commands, which are easy-to-remember for direct movement of the
stepper motor. The DPD75601 communicates via either an RS232 or RS485 bidirectional serial
data bus. Up to 99 DPD75601’s can be networked from one communications port on your PC or
PLC, utilizing the RS485 communications protocol. Special functions of the controller include 8
programmable open collector outputs and 6 TTL, CMOS and 24V compatible inputs, a quadrature
encoder input with the ability to autocorrect, an analog input to control either maximum speed or
absolute position, and a thumbwheel input for indexing a motor. The DPD75601 can be powered
from 90-265 VAC, 50/60Hz.
Section 1:
Description
The driver in the DPD75601 (BLD75) is a step motor driver that can drive motors rated from 1.0
to 7.0 amps/phase. It can handle 6-lead and 8-lead motors in a unipolar fashion. The DPD75601
features a unipolar bilevel (or dual voltage) drive technique with short circuit, open circuit, over
voltage, under voltage and over temperature detection. The DPD75601 offers half-step or full-
step operation to move the motor 0.9 or 1.8 degrees per step.
The controller in the DPD75601 (PCL601) provides independent programming of acceleration/
deceleration, base speed (start up speed), max speed (running speed), jog speed, and the num-
ber of steps to be taken in both relative and absolute positioning modes. On absolute positioning
moves, the DPD75601 also has specic functions such as encoder feedback, autocorrection,
index-on-the-y and output-on-the-y. An analog input can be used to set either the maximum
speed or go to an absolute position based between the upper and lower programmable limits. A
seven decade thumbwheel switch can be read for relative indexing. The DPD75601 also has a
high level programming command set that includes: branching, looping, conditional statements,
time delays, text strings, and I/O which the user can use in the programming mode to fully control
all machine functionality. A home input, a set of bidirectional hard and soft limit switch inputs and
bidirectional jog inputs are provided for each axis. These features are generally required in most
machine control designs. 6 testable TTL, CMOS and 24V compatible inputs and 8 programmable
open-collector outputs are provided per axis. The I/O are accessible independent of the busy state
of the axis controls. The DPD75601 has a built-in programmable reset circuit. Reset is automatic
on power-up, or by pressing the external reset button. A CD, provided when you purchase the
unit, contains this user’s manual, along with the SMC60WIN software and DPD75601 program
examples. The software allows you to write and change programs that are to be stored in the
DPD75601 for autostart use, and also upload the program that is stored in the DPD75601 itself
for editing and viewing. The software also allows you to save the programs onto your computer
hard drive, and easily retrieve them when needed.

Fault Protection
There are ve types of fault detection. When a fault is detected, the driver turns off the motor
current, the red fault LED indicates which type of fault occurred and the Fault Output pin goes
low. This output is able to stand off 50V and sink 50mA. Refer to the table below for LED fault
indications.
# of LED Blinks Fault Protection
1 Short or Over Current
2 Open Motor or Connection
3 High Voltage Too High
4 Low Voltage Too Low
5Over Temperature
If a fault occurs, reset the fault by applying a logic “0” to the Reset Fault Input (pin 4) for at least
100ms or by cycling power off for at least 15 seconds. After resetting, try to run the motor again.
If the driver continues to fault, check the conditions listed below.
Short (One Blink)
This indicates that the driver or motor has a phase shorted or there is a “short” in the motor cable
or wiring. Check the motor and the physical wiring for shorts. If the driver continues to sense
shorts after the motor and wiring are determined to be accurate, then the output transistors should
be checked using a multimeter as follows.
1. Set the multimeter to diode test.
2. Place the red lead on ground (pin 7).
3. Touch the black lead to each phase (pins 1, 2, 12, and 13).
4. This should give readings between 0.450V and 0.550V.
5. If any readings are signicantly less than 0.450V, then the unit has been damaged.
Open (Two Blinks)
This indicates that there is an “open” or intermittent connection in one of the motor wires. Check
the motor and the wiring for opens. Another condition that may cause this type of fault, is when
a large motor is ramped down too quickly and it loses its position (stalls).
High Voltage Too High (Three Blinks)
This indicates that the input voltage of the transformer is too high. Check the input voltage of the
transformer to see if it is within the specied range.
Low Voltage Too Low (Four Blinks)
This indicates that there is an excess amount of current being pulled from the driver or the input
voltage to the transformer is too low to provide the amount of current needed by the low voltage
winding. Check the input voltage of the transformer to see if the voltage is within the specied
range.
Over Temperature (Five Blinks)
This is caused by the heat sink reaching a temperature of 80°C. Make sure proper ventilation or
an additional heat sink is provided so the temperature does not reach this level.

Methods of Communication
There are two methods for sending commands to the DPD75601. One is to directly talk to the
DPD75601 by using Direct Talk Mode. This is usually used with a computer or PLC (Programmable
Logic Controller), where the computer or PLC gives the DPD75601 serial commands to off-load its
processor. For example: A PLC can utilize its outputs to toggle the DPD75601’s inputs and gain con-
trol of variable speeds, variable programs, variable distances, etc. Simply using the DPD75601 as
the intelligent pulse generator, a PLC can remove some of the tasks that were not meant for ladder
logic or any PLC processing time.
The second way to give commands to the DPD75601 is to use the software program SMC60WIN to
either manually control, or to write and send programs. This method is used when the DPD75601
is the main controller. For example: A DPD75601 can replace simple motion control and replace I/O
functional when minimal quantities of I/O are required to control specic machinery. Simple motion
proles that can operate with 6 or less inputs and 8 or less outputs can utilize a DPD75601 controller.
Baud Rate
A term used frequently is serial data communications, a “baud” is dened as the reciprocal of the
shortest pulse duration in a data word signal, including start, stop, and parity bits. This is often taken
to mean the same as “bits per second”, a term that expresses only the number of “data” bits per
second. Very often, the parity bit is included as an information or data bit. The DPD75601 accepts
a baud rate of 38400 only.
RS232 Protocol - Controller SW1 in RS232 Position
The DPD75601 is a DCE device, therefore it will transmit on pin 2 and receive on pin 3 of the DB9
RS-232 connector. The RS232 serial communication mode is single ended. This means that for each
signal there is one wire, and a common ground reference used by all the signals. The DPD75601
does not use handshaking, thus the CTS and RTS lines are internally connected, and the CD, DTR
and DSR lines are internally connected inside the DPD75601. The signal line maintains levels of
+5VDC to +15VDC and -5VDC to -15VDC. For a valid logic level in the controller, the voltage must
be at least +/- 3 volts. RS232 works at distances of up to 50 feet maximum. RS232 is susceptible
to electrical noise, and should not be used in noisy areas. Always use the shortest cable con-
nection possible. NOTE: Keep Controller wiring separated from motor cable/wiring.
RS485 Protocol - Controller SW1 in RS485 Position
The RS485 protocol mode is as follows; On board receivers will remain in active mode indenitely. Trans-
mitters must be turned off when the unit is not sending data, to prevent the line from sending and receiving
data at the same time. Therefore when the PC is transmitting data its driver will be turned on and each
of the units connected will have their drivers off. If they are requested to send data back to the PC, the
selected unit will turn it’s driver on to send the data and then turn it off after it has completed transmission.
Note: The above protocol is done internally between the converter and the DPD75601. The RS485 method
of communication allows increased noise immunity and increased communication distance of up to 4000
feet without repeaters. RS485 repeaters allow an additional 4000 feet per repeater. The DPD75601 is
designed for two wire conguration. The 2 wire conguration makes use of the tristate capabilities of RS485
to allow a single pair of wires to share transmit and receive signals for half duplex communications. This
“two wire” conguration (note that an additional ground conductor must be used) reduces cabling cost.
Note: Keep control wiring separated from motor cable/wiring.

RS232 to RS485 for Multiple units or cables longer than 50ft
The DPD75601 can be connected to your PC serial port via a RS485 converter (model number:
485SD9TB sold separately). This converter will convert the RS232 voltage signals to the com-
patible RS485 differential signals. Only one converter box is needed per serial port. Contact
the factory or use the website www.anaheimautomation.com for RS485 converter information
and sales.
Terminating Resistor
To eliminate noise on the transmission lines or when using a 4000 ft. or longer cable, a terminat-
ing resistor is suggested. If used, the termination resistor need only be added to the last (furthest
from the converter box) DPD75601 in the network between pins A(-) and B(+) on the RS485
Terminal Block. The value of this resistor should be 120 ohms.
Axis Selection
Each DPD75601 is addressed using a programmable register allowing the PC to address up to
99 DPD75601’s from one port. The Default axis is “0”. To change the axis, use the SMC60WIN
software or the “~” command. To verify or check the axis, use the SMC60WIN software or the “%”
command. The axis designation is nonvolatile and will remain the same until changed by the user.
Status LED
When powered and operated properly, the status LED will be green. When an error occurs, the
LED will change to RED, and an error code will be generated in the error code register. To read
and clear the error with software, click on the “Verify Parameters” button located in the “Motion
Tab”. To read and clear the error while in “Direct Mode”, use the error code “!” command. Once
the error has been read and cleared, the LED will return to green and the error code register will
be cleared to 0. Refer to the table on page 39 for a complete list of the error codes.
Technical Support
Everyone needs assistance on occasion. If you have problems using any of the equipment cov-
ered by this manual, please read the manual to see if it will answer your questions. Be sure to
look in the Trouble-shooting Section located near the back of this manual. If you need assistance
beyond what this manual can provide, you may call the factory direct for application assistance.
If possible, have this manual in hand. It is often helpful to have the controller connected to a
computer with the software installed.

Move Number of Steps: This command causes the motion to start in the direction last specied.
This command will move the motor the number of steps given. (Range: 1 to 8388607)
Move to Position: The move to position command species the next absolute position to go to. The
DPD75601 controller automatically sets the direction and number of steps needed to go to that posi-
tion. (Range: -8388607 to +8388607)
Slew: The slew command will accelerate the motor up to maximum speed and continue to run at
that speed until reaching a registration mark, hard limit switch, soft limit switch, receiving a “.” (stop
hard) or “,” (stop soft) command.
Set Position: The set position command sets the position register to a designated value. The number
will be the new absolute position of the motor. The default value is 0. (Range: -8388607 to +8388607)
Limit Switch Inputs: The limit switch inputs are internally pulled up by a resistor making them normally
+5V. To activate the input, the pin must be grounded to (0VDC). All limit switch inputs are internally
clamped to +5V, thus allowing voltages of up to +24VDC to be used.
Hard Limit Inputs: When a hard limit switch is encountered, the motion will stop immediately. The
position counter will also cease counting. Hard limits are intended as an emergency stop for your
system. It should not be used to do any positioning type functions. These limits are directional.
Soft limit Inputs: These switches should be used exclusively for homing. Once positioned properly
with the appropriate parameters, it causes the motor to ramp down to the base speed before encoun-
tering the home limit switch. However, the soft limit switch will work for any type of motion command.
These limits are directional.
NOTE: Whenever a soft limit switch is activated, the motor will decelerate and run at base speed
during an indexing move, or stop during a slewing move. Be sure to come back past the soft limit
switch to set any origins, otherwise the motor will decelerate as it goes past the soft limit switch dur-
ing normal operation.
Home Limit Input: This switch is used to establish a position designated “home” or datum position
using the following: home to soft and home limit, or home to home limit. This limit is not directional.
Home to Soft, Home Limit (2 Switch Operation): This type of homing routine requires two ground-
ing type limit switched called home and soft. The rst limit switch seen is the soft limit. This will
decelerate the motor down to base speed. The motor will then continue to run at base speed until it
contacts the home limit switch input causing the motor to stop. The home limit switch activates as a
hard limit if a soft limit is not sensed. The soft limit is directional, meaning that it will work in only one
direction as specied. The soft limit switch will work for any type of motion command. The home
limit switch will work only for the two home motion commands.
NOTE: There should be sufcient distance between the two limit switches, as to let the motor reach
base speed.
Home to Home Limit (1 Switch Operation): This type of homing differs in that only one limit switch
is needed. In this homing routine the motor moves toward the home limit switch. When the home
limit switch is contacted the motor will ramp down to base speed, reverse direction and continue at
base speed until the limit switch is released. This is a good way to compensate for any backlash in
a system. It is also useful for minimizing the number of limit switches needed for homing.
NOTE: The home switch needs to be low during the entire deceleration and reversing time.

Jog Inputs: The jog switch inputs are internally pulled up by a resistor making them normally +5 volts.
To activate the input, the pin must be grounded to (0VDC). All jog switch inputs are internally clamped to
+5V, thus allowing voltages of up to +24VDC to be used. Jog is a manual function. The user can select
the direction and speed (fast or slow) by grounding the appropriate combinations of inputs. To jog a mo-
tor, it is necessary to ground the jog input for the direction desired. For fast jog, both the fast input and
jog input for the appropriate direction must be low at the same time. By grounding one of the jog inputs,
the user causes the motor to run at base speed. When the fast input is grounded, the motor will then ac-
celerate to the programmed jog speed. The position register will keep track of the number of steps that
are taken during jogging. Once a +jog or a -jog function has been performed, the direction register will
retain the last direction of movement; that is, a subsequent go command will be in the same direction as
the last jog command.
Inputs: All inputs (except input 1) are internally pulled up by a resistor making them normally +5V. To
activate the input, the pin must be grounded to (0VDC). All inputs are internally clamped to +5V, thus al-
lowing voltages of up to +24VDC to be used. Six inputs are provided per axis. The inputs are TTL, CMOS
and 24V compatible. The inputs may be used to initiate a machine cycle, for inter-axis coordination (in
stored program mode), for operator intervention, for sensing a machine condition such as out of stock or
wait temperature to be reached, etc. A ground input will read a “0” and an open or high input will read as
a “1”. Input 1 is a special input that is capable of reading an analog voltage between 0 and +5VDC. Since
this input does not have a pull-up resistor, biasing of this input is needed if it is not used as an analog
input. Inputs 5 and 6 are used together with the thumbwheel switch. To use inputs 5 and 6, SW2 of the
controller must be in the IN5/6 position. If SW2 of the controller is in the TWS position, then these two
inputs are not connected to the input port of the processor.
Analog Input: Input 1 can be congured to read an analog voltage to either set the absolute position of
the motor or to set the maximum speed of the motor.
The set the position, when told via the go to analog position command, the input will read a voltage
between 0 and +5VDC and based on the “upper and lower” limits of the function, a move will occur to a
calculated position between the two limits. The motor must nish the move before it can be told to read
the input again for the next position. For example, if the lower limit is set to 0 and the upper limit is set
to 5000 and the analog position is set at +2.0VDC, then the motor will move to position 2000. Changing
the lower limit to 1000 and the voltage to +3.2VDC, the motor will move to position 3560. See examples
below for calculations of the analog inputs. (Range of limits: 0 to 65535 and the lower limit < upper limit)
To set the max speed, when told via the set analog speed command the input will read a voltage between
0 and +5VDC, and based on the “upper and lower” limits of the function, a max speed can be obtained
based on a calculated frequency between the two points. The speed however can not be changed when
the DPY50601 is busy (moving). See examples below for calculations of the analog inputs. (Range of
limits: 0 to 50000 and the lower limit < upper limit)
Outputs: Eight outputs are provided per axis. Outputs may be used to operate relays, coolant valves, air
cylinders, or, with the correct interfacing, any electronically controlled device. The outputs can drive all
types of common peripheral power loads, including lamps, relays, solenoids, LED’s, printer heads, and
heaters. For inductive loads, it will be necessary to connect a clamping diode (refer to specication sec-
tion) from the output to the power source in order to provide adequate y-back protection. The outputs
are current sinking, open collector darlingtons. They are capable of sinking up to 100mA per output with
voltages up to 40VDC. Turning an output on will pull the output pin to ground and turning an output off
will make the output pin open. Output 1 has a special function (output on the y) that will enable it to be
triggered at a certain absolute position during a move. Output 8 has a special function that will trigger
when the encoder retries function fails.
Analog Calculations Example 1: Example 2:
(Upper-Lower) * (Voltage/5) = X (5000 - 0) * (2/5) = 2000 (5000 - 1000) * (3.2/5) = 2560
Lower + X = Position or Frequency 0 + 2000 = 2000 1000 + 2560 = 3560
July 2018

September 2012L010155 14
Output on the y: This special function enables output 1 to turn on during a relative index or absolute
move. There are three critical portions of information needed to make this function work correctly. First,
output 1 will turn on (0VDC) for a preset delay of 50uS at a specic absolute position set by the 1st output
position command. Second, the output can then repeat this after a preset amount of steps set by the
number of steps between outputs command, and third a predetermined amount of times to set the output
is required by the number of outputs command which determines the preset amount of times to trigger
the output. So if you start at position 0 and want to move to an absolute position of 10,000, you can set
output 1 to turn on at position 2000, and every 1000 steps after that 5 times. So at position 2000, 3000,
4000, 5000, and 6000 output 1 will turn on for 50uS. To only have the output turn on at one position set
both the “number of steps between outputs” and the “number of outputs” commands to 0. This function
must be enabled, and will only work during a relative index or absolute position move. The output will
trigger while going in either direction. If you do not want the output to trigger in the negative direction, the
function must be turned off before the index move is started.
Index on the y: This special function uses Input 2 when a motor is slewing to move a predetermined
amount of steps, set with the registration index command, before stopping. This function must be enabled,
and will only work during a slew move. The registration index must be set before movement begins.
(Range: 1 to 8388607)
End of Program: The end of program command, used within a stored program, stops execution of the
program. This command must be used at the end of all programs.
Wait: In stored program mode, the wait command pauses the program for the specied number of mil-
liseconds. (Range:1 to 65535)
If/Then Statements: The if/then statements are conditional based on the values preset in the program.
The user can either test each individual input or all inputs at once. If the input or input register matches
the given value or values, then the program will execute the next line. If the input or input register does
not match the given value, the program will skip the next line and execute the following line. An open
input is read as a 1, and a grounded input is read as a 0.
Branching or Go To statements: The go to instruction will have the program jump to the given label. If
no label is in the program, it will error when trying to send.
Return from Subroutine: This function can be placed anywhere in the program as long as a go to state-
ment has already been executed. The program will jump back to the last go to statement encountered
and executed the next line in the program.
Inner and Outer Loop: The loop instructions allow the user to loop a program a variable number of times.
The program will loop to the designated label location of the program. However, the label must always
be at a lower line number than the loop instruction itself. You can only nest inner loops inside an outer
loop. You may not nest an inner loop inside an inner loop, or an outer loop inside an outer loop. Multiple
nested inner loops are allowed in one outer loop.
Finish Move: When writing a program, the nish move command is used directly after every motion
command. When using this command, the DPD75601 internally generates a busy signal and will wait
until the move is complete before executing any further commands. Unless the nish move command is
used, the DPD75601 will continue to execute the program. If it encounters a command that cannot be
used when the motor is moving, the DPD75601 will error and stop the program prematurely.
Repeat Last Move: This command will move the motor the number of steps given in the last indexing
move. This command will not work correctly if the encoder auto correct function is enabled.

Encoder Commands: The DPD75601 controller is capable of using a quadrature incremental encoder
with A and B channels.
Encoder Auto Correct: This command will enable or disable the encoder feature of the DPD75601.
When enabled, the encoder function will compare the desired position with the actual encoder position.
If it is not in the correct position a correction move will be made.
Encoder Delay: This sets the wait time, which is a specied number of milliseconds after a relative
index or absolute move is nished, prior to reading the encoder. This is used to remove the ringing that
might be associated with the mechanics of the system. (Range: 0 to 65535)
Encoder Motor Ratio: This represents the ratio for the number of encoder pulses to one motor step.
This ratio must be a whole number. For example, given a 1000 line quadrature encoder and a 400 step/
revolution motor, the motor ratio is (1000 * 4)/400 = 10 (Range: 1 to 255 and must be a whole number).
Encoder Retries: This is the number of times the DPD75601 will try to auto correct the motor shaft
position before producing an error. When the error is produce, Output 8 is triggered. (Range: 0 to 255)
Encoder Window: This is the allowable error in encoder pulses (either plus or minus) from the desired
position that is allowed before the motor auto corrects. (Range: 0 to 255)
Thumbwheel Index: This special function allows a thumbwheel with up to 7 decades to be used with
the DPD75601 to set a relative index. To use the thumbwheel, SW2 must be in the TWS position or
the thumbwheel will be disabled.
Acceleration/Deceleration: The acceleration and deceleration are the same value. The acceleration
is entered directly as steps/sec2and controls the time that the motor will take to move from base speed
to max speed, and from max speed to base speed. The higher the value, the faster the motor will ac-
celerate. The same principal applies for the deceleration which is controlling the time it takes to go from
the max speed to base speed. (Range: 100 to 9,999,999)
Base Speed: The base speed is the speed at which motion starts and stops. It is entered directly as
the number of steps per second. This speed must always be less than the max speed and jog speed.
(Range: 1 to 5000)
Max Speed: The max speed is the top speed the user wants the motor to run. This speed must always
be greater than the base speed. It is entered directly as the number of steps per second. (Range: 1
to 50000)
Jog Speed: The jog speed sets the fast jog rate. Jog (+/-) is used to run at base speed. The FJOG
pin when grounded, will ramp the motor to the set jog speed. This speed must always be greater than
the base speed. It is entered directly as the number of steps per second. (Range: 1 to 50000)
Motor Current: This command will control the ON/OFF output which is designed to connect to the ON/
OFF input of Anaheim Automation’s step motor drivers. To energize and allow current to ow through
the coil of the motor, set the value to on. To de-energize and turn the current off to the motor, set the
value to off. This is dedicated output and not controlled with the output register.
Verify: The verify command causes the DPD75601 controller to send data back to the PC or PLC. The
data is sent as an ASCII decimal string followed by a carriage return and a line feed. The verify com-
mands are shown in the table on page 34.
