    Connections and circuits Stepper motor connection: Connector X10 General information The motor is connected to the SMCI12 with a 4-wire cable. Twisted wire pair cables with braided shields are recommended. Danger of electrical surges Mixing up the connections can destroy the output stage! See the data sheet of the connected stepper motor.
  • Page 15: Power Supply And Rs485/Canopen Interface: Connector X12

    Power supply connection Permissible operating voltage The permissible operating voltage of the stepper motor control SMCI12 lies within the range 12-24 V DC and must not exceed 26 V or undershoot 11 V. A charging condenser with minimum 4700 µF (10000 µF) must be provided for the operating voltage to prevent exceeding the permissible operating voltage (e.g.
