STM11 Hardware Manual The information in this manual applies to the following products: Communication Model RS-422/485 Modbus/RTU STM11S-1RE STM11Q-1RE STM11S-2RE STM11Q-2RE STM11S-3RE STM11Q-3RE Rev. 1.0 8/26/2015...
STM11 Hardware Manual 1 Introduction Thank you for selecting the MOONS’ STM11 Integrated Motor. The STM11 Series Integrated Step Motors incorporate DSP driver technology and integrate the drive electronics with the motor. This provides smooth, precise motion along with ease of set-up and configuration, all at a low cost.
STM11 Hardware Manual 1.3 Safety Instructions Only qualified personnel should transport, assemble, install, operate, or maintain this equipment. Properly qualified personnel are persons who are familiar with the transport, assembly, installation, operation, and maintenance of motors, and who meet the appropriate qualifications for their jobs. To minimize the risk of potential safety problems, all applicable local and national codes regulating the installation and operation of equipment should be followed.
STM11 Hardware Manual 2 Getting Started The following items are needed: • A 15-30 volt DC power supply (24VDC is recommended), see the section below entitled “Choosing a Power Supply” for help in choosing the right one • Download ST Configurator and Q Programmer software from MOONS’ website •...
STM11 Hardware Manual 2.3 Choosing a Power Supply The main considerations when choosing a power supply are the voltage and current requirements for the application. 2.3.1 Voltage Selection The STM11 is designed to give optimum performance at 24 VDC . The extended range of operation can be as low as 14VDC minimum and as high as 32 VDC maximum.
STM11 Hardware Manual 2.3.2 Current The power supply current required by the STM11 at 24VDC input is shown in the charts below. Note that the supply current flowing into the STM11 is less than the motor phase current. That’s because the STM11’s switching amplifier converts high voltage and low current from the DC power supply into the higher current and lower voltage required by the motor.
STM11 Hardware Manual 3 Installation/Connections 3.1 Connecting the Power Supply Connect the power supply “+” terminal to the drive “+” terminal and the power supply “-” terminal to the drive “-” terminal using AWG 26 wire. The STM11 contains an internal fuse connected to the “+”...
STM11 Hardware Manual 3.2 Connecting the STM11 Communications The STM11 is available with RS-422/485 serial communication. Below are descriptions of how to interface RS-422/485 to a PC. 3.2.1 Connecting to a host using RS-422/485 RS-422/485 communication allows connection of more than one drive to a single host PC, PLC, HMI or other computer.

STM11 Hardware Manual RS-232 to RS-422/485 4-wire Converter: • UT-202 is a recommended ‘RS-232 to RS-422’ converter from UTEK TECHNOLOGY (SHENZHEN) CO, LTD. (http://www.szutek.cn/) The connection is as follows. It only supports to establish the full-duplex (4-wire) RS-422 network. It can’t be used in the half-duplex (2-wire) RS-485 network.
STM11 Hardware Manual RS-232 to RS-422/485 2-wire Converter: • UT-201 is a recommended ‘RS-232 to RS-485’ converter from UTEK TECHNOLOGY (SHENZHEN) CO, LTD. (http://www.szutek.cn/) The connection is as follows. It only supports to establish the half-duplex (2-wire) RS-485 network. It can’t be used in the full-duplex (4-wire) RS-422 network.
STM11 Hardware Manual 3.3 Inputs and Outputs The STM11 has four high speed (1 MHz) digital inputs, 5 to 24VDC logic: X1/Step can be used as Step, CW Step, A Quadrature, CW Limit, CW Jog, Run/Stop or general purpose input X2/Direction can be used as Direction, CCW Step, B Quadrature, CCW Limit , CCW Jog or general purpose input X3/Enable can be used as Enable, Change speed or general purpose input...
STM11 Hardware Manual 3.3.2 X1/Step & X2/Dir Digital Inputs The diagram below shows how to connect the X1/Step & X2/Dir Inputs to commonly used device. Note: X1/Step & X2/Dir inputs have been pulled up to power supply input +, typ. 24 VDC Note: If the input voltage is between 5-24 VDC, or the input is not connected, the logic state of that input is HIGH.

STM11 Hardware Manual 4.4 Drive/Motor Heating Step motors convert electrical power from the driver into mechanical power to move a load. Because step motors are not 100% efficient, some of the electrical power turns into heat as it passes through the motor. The amount of heating is not so much dependent on the load being driven as on the motor speed and power supply voltage.
