It is recommended to mount the drive vertically to maximize heat dissipation. Mount a cooling fan nearby if necessary. ⚫ If multiple CS-D508 drives are installed, it is suggested to keep a minimal 30mm (12 inches) between two of them. 3. Connections / Pin Assignments and LED Indication CS-D508 closed loop stepper drive has 5 connection blocks from P1 to P5 (see figure 2).

In Position Use Leadshine ProTuner for CS-D software to configure this output as an IN POSITION output. In this case, an output signal can be sent out when the targeted position is in the “Target” range (see parameter Distance to Send "In position"...
3.1.2 Typical Control and Fault Output Connections The CS-D508 can accept differential and single-ended control signal inputs (open-collector and PNP output). A CS-D508 has 3 optically isolated control inputs, PUL, DIR, and ENA. Refer to the following two figures for connections of open- collector and PNP signals.
3.6 Status LED Lights There are two LED lights for CS-D508, one red and one green. The GREEN one is the power indicator which will be always on generally. The RED one is a protection indicator. It is off always when a CS-D508 operates normally, but will flash 1, 2 or 7 times in a 5-second period when error protection is enabled.
Leadshine’s RPS series. Or, in the case when only normal switching power supplies are available, it is important to use “OVERSIZE” high current output rating power supplies (for example, using a 4A power supply for 3A stepper motor) to avoid problems such as current clamp.
Falling Rising 7. Typical Connection A complete closed loop stepper system should include a stepper motor with encoder, CS-D508 drive, power supply and controller (pulse generator). A typical connection is illustrated in figure 6. Motion Control Products Ltd. Tel.: (+44) 01202 599922 www.motioncontrolproducts.com...
The CS-D508 is designed for simple setup and implementation. For most applications no software configuration or tuning is needed especially when driving Leadshine’s CS-M series stepper motors with encoders (see Appendix A). If you want to do fine tuning or custom configurations such as micro-step, current percentage change, you can use Leadshine’s ProTuner software to make the changes.
If you plan to use the ProTuner software, please contact us to purchase the RS232 cable with part number CABLE-PC for connecting the CS-D508 to a computer with Windows 7/8/10 installed. In the case of using USB to RS232 conversion, contact us for the cable with part number USB2.0-232 which has been verified working fine.

CS-D508 Closed-loop Stepper Drive User Manual 13. Warranty TWELVE MONTH LIMITED WARRANTY Motion Control Products Ltd warrants its products against defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 12 months from the shipping/purchasing date. During the warranty period Motion Control Products, at their discretion, will repair or replace products that are proved to be defective.
Confirm both encoder and power cables are connected properly and tightly secured. Power off the drive then swap the A+ and A- motor connections to the CS-D508 drive. The reason is the definitions of your Motor A+ and A- are different from those marked on CS-D508 motor connection pins (P3 of Figure 2).
