1. Introduction, Features and Applications Introduction Electrical Specifications (T = 25℃/77℉) The DMD4022 is a versatility fully digital stepping driver based on a DSP with advanced control DMD4022 algorithm. The DMD4022 is the next generation of digital stepping motor controls. It brings a Parameters...
Natural Cooling or Forced cooling Selecting Active Pulse Edge and Control Signal Mode Avoid dust, oil fog and corrosive gases Environment The DMD4022 supports PUL/DIR and CW/CCW modes and pulse active at rising or falling edge. 0 -50 (32℉-122℉) Ambient Temperature Operating See more information about these settings in Section 13.
5. Connecting the Motor motors should be run at only 70% of their rated current to prevent over heating. The DMD4022 can drive any 2-pahse and 4-pahse hybrid stepping motors. Connections to 4-lead Motors 4 lead motors are the least flexible but easiest to wire. Speed and torque will depend on winding Figure 6: 6-lead motor full coil (higher torque) connections inductance.
Theoretically, this will reduce motor heating to 36% (due to P=I *R) of the original value. If 6400 the application needs a different standstill current, please contact Soprolec. Current Settings 8. Wiring Notes For a given motor, higher driver current will make the motor to output more torque, but at the In order to improve anti-interference performance of the driver, it is recommended to use twisted pair shield cable.
Low level width not less than 7.5µs. 11. Protection Functions To improve reliability, the driver incorporates some built-in protection functions. The DMD4022 uses one RED LED to indicate what protection has been activated. The periodic time of RED is 3 Figure 9: Typical connection s (seconds), and how many times the RED turns on indicates what protection has been activated.
turn on twice within each periodic time (3 s). Phase Error Protection Motor power lines wrong & not connected will activate this protection. RED LED will turn on four times within each periodic time (3 s). When above protections are active, the motor shaft will be free or the LED will turn Attention: red.
13. Professional Tuning Software ProTuner Introduction This section will provide an overview of connection and basic setup instructions for Soprolec’s digital stepping driver DMD4022 using the ProTuner software. These instructions will walk you through the following steps necessary to start up your driver and motor. This section is intended for setting up the driver with the ProTuner.

Figure 13: User’s information settings Figure 15: Shortcut folder setting Set the “Shortcut Folder” in Figure 15 and continue to install the ProTuner by following Figure 16 and Figure 17. An Installation Successful window will appear if the ProTuner is installed successfully.
Testing the Stepping System Figure 17: Installing the ProTuner Turn on the power supply, the green (Power) LED will light. The DMD4022 has default parameters stored in the driver. If the system has no hardware and wirings problem, the motor should be locked and the driver should be ready.
Com Config Window Figure 21: RS232 communication configuration window Figure 22: Current Tuning window Serial Port: Select the serial communication port to which the driver is connected. The factory default setting is COM1. Ki: Integral Gain. Integral Gain helps the driver to overcome static current errors. A low or zero value for the Integral Gain may have current errors at rest.
This feature requires that the driver be configured with respect to the total inertia in the then Motor self-test and parameter auto-setup technology of the DMD4022 can replace manual tuning the driver with ProTuner. Just changes SW4 two times in 1 second, and then the driver will system.

ResonanceArea: Parameters for 2 Default Amp2 and Phase2 values are zero. It is very important to make the AMP(s) and Phase(s) adjustments at the proper test speeds with an unloaded motor.

OverCurrent: Over-current Protection. Protection will be activated when continuous current exceeds 16A. OverVoltage: Over-voltage Protection. When power supply voltage exceeds 42 ± 1 VDC, protection will be activated. PhaseErr: Phase Error Protection. Motor power lines wrong & not connected will activate this protection.
