Hi all,
I am building a CNC and will be using a NEMA24 4A stepper motor. To drive the motor I was planning to use the DM556 driver.
I will not be using a software to control the DM556. Instead, I will be controlling it through a microconroller. From the DM556 datasheet I can see that there is a terminal block for enabling the driver and for selecting the direction. Now my problem is to control the speed of the stepper motor.
Does anyone know how to do this? Also, is it difficult to interface this driver with a microcontroller instead of using the RS232?
Any kind of help will be appreciated.
