How to use the stepper motor controller

A stepper motor controller is a type of motor controller that can emit uniform pulse signals and has a wide range of applications. How to use

a stepper motor controller? Below, let me briefly introduce it!

In general, there are two wiring methods for stepper motor controllers, namely common anode connection and common cathode connection. First,

install the function setting table, then test and set the actual required functions. After manual adjustment is completed, set EN to invalid state to continue automatic control.
It is worth noting that the stepper motor controller must pay attention to the correct wiring method during the wiring process, otherwise it may

cause unexpected situations such as current burnout, resulting in unpredictable dangers.
