Hi,
I want to build a simple rotary fixture for our Epilog Legend EX engraver. It is already wired for an existing rotary with a Vexta PH265M-33-C9 Motor which has 6 wires. We have no budget but we have HY200-2220-0210-AX08 stepper motors from an obsolete system. I downloaded the wiring and I think I know what to do, but I am not 100% and I do not want to hurt the motor drivers.
Existing 6 wire
Phase A Black
CT-A Yellow
Phase [not]A Green
Phase B Red
CT-B White
Phase [not]B Blue
In the epilog system Black,Green,Red and Blue all go to their own Pins. The part that confuses me is both center taps are shorted together and go to the controller on the same pin. I can't find this scheme anywhere.
Why would they do this?
HY200 Motor
Was used for simple cone turning on a laser, CW so many steps brings cone up, CCW down. counter. Simple enough. It looks similar to the vexta in construction except it has 4 coils without center taps as opposed to two center tapped coils. However the coils [not]Leads are shorted together essentially making it very similar It's wiring was connected as follows:
Phase A1 Black
Phase A2 Orange (I think this is essentially not A)
Phase [A1] Wht/Blk connected to [A2]
Phase [A2] Wht/Org connscted to [A1]
Phase B1 Red
Phase B2 Yellow (I think this is essentially not B)
Phase [B1] Wht/Red connected to [B2]
Phase [B2] Wht/Yel connscted to [B1]
These center taps are not connected at all, which seems fairly standard.
What I think I can do
Hook it up as the Vesta and gang all 4 Center Tap wires together, Wht/Blk,Wht/Org,Wht/Red and Wht/Yel.
Not sure why this scheme was used this way?
