Product designation Programmable step motor controller SMSD-4.2LAN is designed to operate with hybrid two or four-phase stepper motor with maximum current per phase up to 4.2Amp (SMSD-4.2LAN) or 8.0Amp (SMSD-8.0LAN). Three control modes are provided: programmable, analog control and position pulse control. The controller provides programming and control via USB or Ethernet.

controller) in an available range 0.1 – 4.2A (0.1 – 8.0A). The current motor control mode performs better torque and high rotation speed, but it is limited with a maximum microstepping division 1/16; Voltage control mode – performs smooth motion and provides microstepping division up to 1/128. However, rotation speed and torque are less in comparison with the current control mode.
