1 Overview of the 5630 Stepper
Motor Drive
In this Chapter This Chapter introduces the 5630 Stepping Motor Drive.
Topics covered are:
•5630 definition
•Other system components
•How to use this manual
•Warranty
1.1 5630 Definition
The Pacific Scientific®5630 Stepper Motor Drive is an
electronics package that converts step and direction inputs to
motor winding currents to control a two-phase bipolar
stepping motor.
The output current of the 5630 is switch selectable from 5.0 to
8.0 amps/phase RMS (7.1 to 11.3 amps peak) with a 160-volt
nominal dc bus. The 5630 leaves the factory set at 5.0
amps/phase RMS.
Standard
features Bipolar chopper drive -controls motor current at 20 kHz
chopper frequency.
Internal power supplies - operate from the 115-volt ac input.
The main motor supply consists of a full wave bridge rectifier
into a capacitive input filter with in-rush current limiting.
Shunt regulator circuitry -protects the drive by removing
energy from the supply if the dc bus voltage exceeds 200 volts.
This feature protects the circuitry from excessive voltage that
may be generated under certain motor deceleration
conditions.
Rev E 5630 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual 1 - 1

Features
(cont’d) Short circuit protection circuitry - latches the drive off and
lights the POWER FAULT LED if a short circuit occurs on
the motor outputs.
Optical isolation circuitry - isolates the user signals from the
drive power circuits for the step, direction, enable, and reset
command lines.
User
adjustments Mid-range instability control - eliminates loss of torque and
possible motor stalling conditions when operating at
mid-range speeds. This instability is a phenomenon of the
electronic, magnetic, and mechanical characteristics of a
stepping motor system. The enabled function damps
mid-range oscillations by advancing or delaying the switching
of the output transistors relative to the incoming pulse train.
Step size - sets the amount of shaft rotation per step. The
five settings range from full step to fractions of a full step
(microsteps). The microstep settings range from 1/2 to 1/125
for up to 25,000 steps/revolution with a standard 1.8ostepper
motor.
Idle current reduction (ICR) - reduces motor winding current
by 50% during motor dwell periods. ICR begins one second
after the last input step pulse occurs.
Current setting - sets the current supplied to the motor. The
available RMS current settings are 5, 6, 7.5, and 8 amps.

1.3 How to Use this Manual
Description This manual contains information and procedures to install,
set up, and troubleshoot the 5630 Stepper Motor Drive.
The most effective way to use the manual is to follow the
instructions in Chapter 2, “Installing the 5630 Stepper Motor
Drive,” and Chapter 3, “Powering Up the 5630 Stepper Motor
Drive.”
For quick reference during installation, use Appendix C,
“Connections Summary,” and Appendix D, “Switch
Summary.”

2 Installing the 5630 Stepper
Motor Drive
In this Chapter This Chapter explains how to install the 5630 Stepper Motor
Drive. Topics covered are:
•Unpacking and inspecting the 5630
•Selecting other system components
•5630 safety
•Mounting the 5630 in your installation
•Connecting input/output cabling
•Selecting switch functions
2.1 Unpacking and Inspecting the 5630
Unpacking
procedure 1. Remove the 5630 from the shipping carton. Make sure all
packing materials are removed from the unit.
2. Check the items against the packing list. A label located
on the side of the unit identifies the unit by model
number, serial number, and date code.
Inspection
procedure Inspect the unit for any physical damage that may have been
sustained during shipment.
If you find damage, either concealed or obvious, contact your
buyer to make a claim with the shipper. Do this as soon as
possible after receipt of the unit.
Storing the unit Store the 5630 in a clean, dry place. The storage temperature
must be between -25 degrees C and 85 degrees C. To prevent
damage during storage, store the unit in the original shipping
carton after completing the inspection for damage.
Rev E 5630 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual 2 - 1

2.2 Selecting Other System Components
Selecting an
indexer The 5630 requires step, direction, and enable inputs. Select
an indexer that provides, as a minimum, these commands. A
compatible indexer will provide the capability to drive the
input circuits shown in the Table in section 2.5.3, “J3 Signal
Interface Connection.” For most applications that operate at
speeds above 300 rpm, an indexer that can ramp the output
pulse train is required.
The Pacific Scientific 5645 Advanced Indexer combines 5630
functionality and BASIC Motion Control indexing in a single
package.
Selecting a
motor The 5630 is designed for use with Pacific Scientific’s line of
hybrid stepper motors. The drive works with either the
standard line or the enhanced high performance line of
stepper motors. The motor winding current rating must be
compatible with the output current of the drive package - 5.0,
6.0, 7.5, or 8.0 amps RMS (7.1, 8.5, 10.6, or 11.3 amps peak).
The electrical and magnetic losses of the motor must not
exceed the motor power dissipation rating. This is a concern
at higher speeds and with low inductance motors (less than
4-inch frame size). The motor case temperature should not
exceed 100°C.
Contact your local Pacific Scientific Distributor for sizing and
motor compatibility assistance.
2.3 5630 Safety
Your
responsibility As the user or person applying this unit, you are responsible
for determining the suitability of this product for any
application you intend. In no event will Pacific Scientific
Company be responsible or liable for indirect or
consequential damage resulting from the use of this product.
2 - 2 5630 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual Rev E

Safety
background Under direct off-line conditions, all the logic and power
circuitry is electrically “hot” with respect to earth ground.
The only circuitry that is not “hot” under these conditions is
the optical isolator inputs and the optically isolated fault
output.
The internal drive circuitry will vary from 160 volts above to
160 volts below earth ground potential.
If desired, use an isolation transformer for additional safety
benefits.
Warning
The circuits in the 5630 are a potential source of severe electrical
shock. Follow the safety guidelines to avoid shock.
Safety
guidelines To avoid possible personal injury whenever you are working
with the 5630:
•Do not power up the drive without the cover on and the
chassis tied to earth ground.
•Do not operate the drive without the motor case tied to
earth ground.
•Do not make any connections to the internal circuitry.
The optically isolated input and output signals are the
only safe connection points.
•Always remove power before making or removing
connections from the unit.
•Before removing the cover of the unit, shut off power and
allow the unit to sit for 5 minutes to discharge the bus
capacitors.
•Be careful of the motor terminals when disconnected
from the motor. With the motor disconnected and power
applied to the drive, the motor terminals have high
voltage present, even with the motor disconnected.
•Do not use the enable input as a safety shutdown. Always
remove power to the drive for a safety shutdown.
Rev E 5630 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual 2 - 3

2.4 Mounting the 5630 in Your Installation
Cabinet
selection Select a standard 8-inch (205 mm) deep NEMA (National
Electrical Manufacturers Association) enclosure appropriate
for industrial applications.
Caution
The internal cabinet temperature should not exceed 50°C (60°C
with derating). If the cabinet is ventilated by filtered or
conditioned air make sure to prevent the accumulation of dust
and dirt on the unit’s electronic components. The air should also
be free of corrosive or electrically conductive contaminants.
Mounting

Power
dissipation for
cabinet
The 5630 dissipates power causing cabinet heating. Power
dissipation is determined by a number of factors, such as
output current, motor winding impedance, input step rates,
and idle current reduction. The 5630 is shipped with current
set at 5 amps/phase and with idle current reduction enabled.
For an estimate of the power dissipation for use in calculating
cabinet cooling requirements, use the values shown:

Introduction For the 4-lead standard systems motor with MS connector,
build and install the cable as follows.
Cable
requirements Use 16- to 14-gauge stranded wire for the cabling. Obtain
cable with each winding pair (refer to diagram) twisted at
about 3 to 4 turns per inch (1 to 1.5 turns per centimeter).
Make sure the cable contains a lead for grounding. As an
