Wiring Schmetics for a DM524 drivers

Post by ShaAli »

Hello,

I would appreciate if you can guide me to the wiring pdf for external drivers like DM524 or similar. I tried to look for and was not successful in finding. I do have wiring information for Gecko G540

I am hopeful to create a setup that includes

4 DM524 drivers (or Gecko G540, no purchased yet) i understand its one or the other.
Centroid CNC
VFD control spindle 2.2kw
probes and TLO
limit switches

Thank you so much for your help.

Do you mean DM542 drive? If not please post a link to the DM524 you are referencing.

The DM542 is a Leadshine clone and there are a few wiring diagrams on the Centroid schematic page.

Just my 2¢ but I highly recommend going with individual stepper drives like the DM542T versus the G540. Not a Gecko fan at all. I'd also recommend spending just a little more money now and buying closed loop stepper drives and motors. It's really not that much more money now. You'll be glad you did. It'll cost you a lot more down the road when you realize you want to upgrade and should have started with closed loop stepper in the first place.

There are a TON of affordable options out there if you must go with stepper drives.

Thank you for your help. I meant this https://www.omc-stepperonline.com/digit ... tor-dm542t

I will look for lead shine clone drawings. I appreciate your suggestion on going with closed loop and I will definitely l look into it.
