DESCRIPTION

The Microstepping MForce PowerDrive

is a high performance, low cost micro-

stepping driver that delivers unsurpassed

smoothness and performance achieved

through IMS’s advanced 2nd generation

current control. By applying innova-

tive techniques to control current fl ow

through the motor, resonance is signifi -

cantly dampened over the entire speed

range and audible noise is reduced.

Microstepping MForce PowerDrives ac-

cept a broad input voltage range from

+12 to +75 VDC, delivering enhanced

performance and speed. Oversized input

capacitors are used to minimize power

line surges, reducing problems that

can occur with long runs and multiple

drive systems. An extended operating

range of –40° to +85°C provides long

life, trouble free service in demanding

environments.

The high, per phase output current of up

to 5 Amps RMS, 7 Amps Peak, allows

the extremely compact MForce Power-

Drive to control a broad array of motors

from size 23 to size 42.

The microstepping drive accepts up to 20

resolution settings from full to 256 mic-

rosteps per full step, including: degrees,

metric and arc minutes. These settings

may be changed on-the-fl y or downloaded

and stored in nonvolatile memory with the

use of a simple GUI which is provided.

This eliminates the need for external

switches or resistors. Parameters are

changed via an SPI port.

The versatile Microstepping MForce

PowerDrive comes with dual mounting

confi gurations to fi t various system needs.

All interface connections are accomplished

using pluggable locking wire crimp connec-

tors. Optional cables are available for ease

of connecting and confi guring the MForce,

and are recommended with fi rst order.

The Microstepping

MForce PowerDrive

is a compact, powerful and inexpensive

solution that will reduce system cost,

design and assembly time for a large

range of applications.

CONFIGURING

The IMS SPI Motor Interface software is

an easy to in stall and use GUI for con-

fi g ur ing Microstepping

MForce from a

computer's USB port. GUI access is via

the IMS SPI Motor Interface included on

the CD shipped with the product, or from

www.imshome.com.

The IMS SPI Motor Interface features:

• Easy installation.

•

Automatic detection of MForce version

and communication confi guration.

• Will not set out-of-range values.

• Tool-tips display valid range

setting for each option.

• Simple screen interfaces.
