5/24v Signal Stepper Drivers

Post by Yarger897 »

Hello Everyone,

So if this is a noob question I apologize in advance, This is my first build. My question is that my stepper drives take a 5/24v signal and I was wondering if I could connect them on the screw terminals, or do I have to use the DB25 connector since they are steppers?

You haven't provided the model number for the drives, but virtually all stepper drives should be connected as 5v to the DB25 header

My drivers are stepperonline DM556T if that helps.
