1.1 6430 Definition
Overview
The Pacific Scientific 6430 converts step and direction inputs
into motor winding currents to control a two-phase stepper
motor. Principal features include microstepping and digital
electronic damping for high resolution and smooth operation
through both the low speed and mid-band resonance regions.
The output current of the 6430 is dip switch selectable from
0.625A rms (0.88A peak in microstep mode) to 5A rms (7.1 A
peak in microstep mode).
The Pacific Scientific 6430 can be powered from 120 or 240
Vac (60/50 Hz). This input is switch selectable for either 120
or 240 Vac. An internal PWM switching power supply provides
up to 300 W ± 10% of power to the stepper drive.

Overview
Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
Bipolar chopper drive - patented 4-phase PWM (pulse width
modulation) chopping electronically controls the motor
winding currents at 20 KHz frequency. This combines the best
of recirculating and non-recirculating current regulation
producing high back EMF rejection with low chopping ripple
current. Benefits include: reduced heat dissipation, low
electric noise and improved current control during motor
braking.
Microstepping - switch selectable: full, 1/2, 1/5, 1/10, 1/25,
1/50, 1/125, and 1/250 step capability with decimal jumper
installed and 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, 1/128, and 1/256 with
decimal jumper removed.
Digital Electronic Damping - patented circuit eliminates
torque and/or motor stalling through mid-speed region that is
inherent in all open loop stepper applications.
Short circuit protection circuitry - disables the drive if a short
circuit occurs on the motor outputs. The drive must be power
cycled to clear fault.
MOSFET power devices - allows chopper frequency of
approximately 20 KHz, eliminating acoustical noise often
associated with choppers.
Optically isolated signal interface connection - optical isolation
is provided on the step, direction and enable inputs in addition
to the enabled output. The use of optical isolation increases
the options available for system grounding. The source
commanding the step and direction lines is not tied directly to
the motor power supply ground, allowing the system ground
point for these signals to be made external to the unit.
UL Recognition - 508C (Type R) PENDING - File Number
E-137798. This will also comply with CSA Standard for
Process Control Equipment, C22.2 No. 142-M1987.
Power supply
features
66 Vdc Output - three pin pluggable connector (J6) designed
to supply 66 Vdc to power an additional drive. The total
power available for both the internal and external drives is 66
Vdc
@ 4.6 A or 300 W ± 10%.

Motor current - sets the motor phase current to 5.0, 4.375,
3.75, 3.125, 2.5, 1.875, 1.25, or 0.625 A rms.
using DIP
switch S1
Step size - sets the amount of shaft rotation per step (with the
decimal jumper installed). The settings are full, half, 1/5, 1/10,
1/25, 1/50, 1/125, and 1/250 steps per (micro)step. This
corresponds to 200, 400, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10,000, 25,000, and
50,000 (micro) steps per revolution with a standard 1.8° motor.
With the decimal jumper removed, the settings are 1/2, 1/4,
1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, 1/128, and 1/256 steps per (micro) step.
This corresponds to 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400, 12,800, 25,600,
and 51,200 (micro) steps per revolution.
Digital Electronic Damping control - enables this patented
feature which eliminates loss of torque and possible motor
stalling conditions when operating at mid-range speeds. This
instability is a phenomenon of the electronic, magnetic and
mechanical characteristics of a stepping motor system. The
compensation circuit damps mid-range oscillations by
advancing or delaying switching of the output current relative
to the incoming pulse train.
Idle current reduction (ICR) - enables or disables idle current
reduction which reduces motor winding current by 50% of its
rated value during motor dwell periods. ICR begins 0.1
second after the last input step pulse occurs. This delay can
also be set to 0.05 seconds or 1 second using a plug-on jumper.
Note: The current will return to 100% at the next step pulse.
using plug-on
jumpers
Step filter - when enabled (jumper installed) rejects noise
pulses on step input less than 500ηs wide. Useful if maximum
step rate is 500 KHz.
Enable sense - allows the polarity of the enable input to be
reversed. With the jumper installed, the enable input
opto-isolator must be driven to enable drive. With the jumper
removed, enable input opto-isolator must be driven to disable.
using AC Switch
SW1
Off line 120/240 Vac - switch selects AC input. DO NOT apply
240 Vac with AC Switch in 120 Vac position.

Mating
connector
The J3 motor connector on the 6430 mates to a 5-pin PCD
screw cable connector. The mating cable connector is type
ELVP05100.
Cable
requirements
The mating connector terminals will accept #16 to #18 AWG
wire. Pacific Scientific recommends using #16 AWG.
For the motor cable, use cable with two twisted pairs twisted at
about 3 to 4 turns per inch (1 to 1.5 turns per centimeter) for
the motor phase excitations and a fifth wire for the case
ground. As an option, the cable may be shielded to reduce
radiated noise. A single shield can be used around both phase
excitations and the ground wire or each phase excitation
(twisted pair) can be individually shielded as in the Pacific
Scientific cables. Connect shields to pin 5 of the mating
connector.

2.5.3 J6 - External 66 Vdc Output Connection
Introduction
The J6 external 66 Vdc output allows the 6430 to power
additional drives.
Mating
connector
The J6 output connector mates to a PCD 3-pin screw cable
connector. The mating connector, supplied with the unit, is
type ELVP03100.
Cable
requirements
Use 18- to 16-gauge shielded wire for the cabling.

In multi-axis applications, if additional 6410s are added, it is
preferable to run each power connection from the J6 DC
output to the 6430 as shown below. DO NOT daisy-chain the
power connections.
Note: The total power available for both the internal and external
drives is 66 Vdc @ 4.6 A or approximately 300 W ±10%. If the
two drives are running simultaneously and require more than 4.6
A, the voltage will drop. The power supply has a low voltage
protection circuit that will fault the drive if the voltage is < 55
Vdc.
Note: If the 6430 is powering additional 6410s with J6, a total of
1000 µf (maximum) 100 Vdc aluminum electrolytic capacitor,
rated for 2A ripple current or greater @ 10 KHz and 105°C, must
be installed at the 6410 (as close to the 6410 as possible) if the
cable length is over 3 feet. DO NOT exceed 1000 µf total on J6
external connector.

3.1.2 Digital Electronic Damping Control
Definition
Mid-speed instability and the resulting loss of torque occurs in
any step motor/drive system due to the motor back EMF
modulating the motor winding currents at certain speeds.
Mid-speed instability can be explained as a region of potential
instability that occurs as a result of the electronic, magnetic,
and mechanical characteristics of any stepping motor system.
The circuitry used to control this phenomenon does so by
advancing or delaying the switching of the output current with
respect to the incoming pulse train. This should be taken into
account if the user is attempting to employ pulse placement
techniques.
Enable the digital electronic damping function by placing DIP
switch S1 position 4 in the open position as shown. This is the
default position and should be used for most applications if
your application is affected by loss of torque at mid-range
speeds. If pulse placement techniques are being used, disable
the digital electronic damping function by placing DIP switch
S1 position 4 in the open position.
Benefit
This feature controls torque loss at mid-range speeds. When
enabled, the motor maintains torque at mid-range operation,
provided the torque load does not exceed motor torque
ratings.

Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com
3.1.3 Idle Current Reduction
Definition
The Idle Current Reduction (ICR) function reduces the phase
current at times when no motion is commanded. Motor
current is reduced when no step commands are received for a
given time. This time can be set to 0.05 seconds, 0.1 seconds
or 1.0 second. Current to both motor windings is reduced by
one-half.
The ICR function can be enabled/disabled and the time delay
between the last step command and current reduction can be
set to 50 ms, 0.1 seconds, or 1.0 second using DIP switch S1
position 5 and Jumper J6 position 7-8. With the jumper
installed (factory default), ICR is disabled when DIP Switch S1
position 5 is in the closed position and enabled with a delay of
0.1 second (current is reduced by 50% when no step command
is received for 0.1 second when the switch is open. With the
jumper removed, ICR is enabled and the delay can be set to
0.05 second or 1.0 second by placing DIP Switch S1 position 5
in the closed or open position respectively.
Note: When ICR is active, both the holding torque generated by
the motor and the motor stiffness around the holding position are
reduced by approximately 50%.
Benefits
The ICR function:
•
Reduces motor and drive heating during stand-by operation

3.1.4 Setting Motor Current
Motor current can be set using DIP Switch S1 positions 6, 7,
and 8 as shown. Current should be compatible with motor
current ratings.
3.1.5 Enable Sense Control
The polarity of the enable input can be changed using Jumper
J6 position 5-6. With the jumper removed (factory default),
the drive is enabled when the enable input is not driven and
disabled when driven (current flows in enable opto). This
allows the 6430 to be used with no connection to the enable
input. With the J6 5-6 jumper installed, the enable input must
be driven (current in opto) for the 6430 power stage to be
enabled.
3.1.6 Step Bandwidth Adjustment
A digital filter can be enabled which reduces susceptibility to
noise on the step input at the expense of a lower limit on
maximum step frequency. With Jumper J6 positions 1-2
installed (factory default) the filter is enabled and step pulses
must have a minimum width of one microsecond. Pulses less
than 0.5 microseconds in width will be rejected. With the filter
disabled, Jumper J6 position 1-2 removed, step pulses must be
a minimum of 0.25 microseconds wide. Therefore, the
maximum step frequency is 500 KHz with the filter enabled
and 2 MHz with the filter disabled.

3.3 Testing the Installation
Background
The following procedure verifies that the 6430 is installed
properly and that it was not damaged during shipment.
Procedure
After installing the 6430 as described in Chapter 2, test your
installation as follows.
Warning
Perform this initial power up with the motor shaft disconnected
from the load. Improper wiring or undiscovered shipping damage
could result in undesired motor motion. Be prepared to remove
power if excessive motion occurs.
Connections test
1. Check all wiring and mounting to verify correct
installation.
2. With the power Off, check that S1 is set as follows (factory
default settings):
These settings reflect the following:
- Step size of 1/25
- Digital electronic damping enabled
- Idle current reduction enabled
- 5 A rms motor current
Warning

- Idle Current Reduction Enabled (0.1 second delay)
- 6430 enabled without enable input driven
- Decimal step size selected
- Step input filter enabled
4. Switch On 120 OR 240 Vac power, as selected by position
of AC Switch.
Warning!
Connecting 240 (230) Vac with switch in 120 (115) Vac position
will permanently damage the drive.
Signals test
1. Verify that the motor has holding torque by attempting to
rotate the motor shaft. The energized motor shaft is
either immovable or is resistant to rotation.
2. Input a step command and verify that the motor moves.
3. Reverse the polarity of the DIRECTION signal and step
the motor. The direction of rotation should change.

In this chapter
This chapter covers maintenance and troubleshooting of the
6430 unit.
4.1 Maintaining the 6430 Drive
Introduction
The 6430 drives are designed for minimum maintenance. The
following cleaning procedure, performed as needed, will
minimize problems due to dust and dirt build-up.
Procedure
Remove superficial dust and dirt from the unit using clean,
dry, low-pressure air.
4.2 Troubleshooting the 6430 Drive
Introduction
The 6430 has an “enabled” output which is on when the drive
is enabled and off when the drive is disabled or faulted due to
any of the following:
•
Output overcurrent (line-to-line or line-to-neutral short)
•
Bus overvoltage
•
Low voltage supply out of tolerance.
Procedure
Use the troubleshooting tables and the simple circuit shown on
the following pages to diagnose and correct most problems. If
you are unable to achieve satisfactory operation, contact your
local Pacific Scientific Distributor or the Applications
Engineering Department.

4.2.2 Troubleshooting the drive board
Corrective action
table
Use the following table to troubleshoot the drive board:
SYMPTOM
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Motor produces
no torque,
Meter reads
high.
Note: See figure
on next page.
Ensure that the J6 5-6 jumper is out, or if in, that the enable
input opto is driven with at least 3 mA.
Disconnect the AC power. Disconnect motor cable and cycle
the J1 power supply Off and On. If the meter reads low, check
motor cable and motor for shorts across the windings or
between the windings and the motor case.
Motor produces
no torque,
meter reads low.
Note: See figure
on next page.
Verify that DIP Switch S1 position 6, 7, and 8 (current select)
are set correctly.
Re-check that the motor cable is wired correctly and properly
plugged into the drive.
Motor produces
torque but does
not turn.
Make sure that the STEP input is switching and meets specified
electrical and timing requirements.
Motor rotates in
the wrong
direction
Check polarity of the DIRECTION input. Also, check that the
DIRECTION input satisfies the specified electrical and timing
requirements.
Reverse the A and A motor phases.
Motor does not
reach expected
position
Check that the step size setting of the drive is the same as the
step size setting of the indexer.
Verify that the motor does not stall. If it does:
1. Use a finer step size to avoid low-speed resonance problems.
2. Enable Digital Electronic Damping control. (S1 position 4
OFF).
Check that the STEP and DIRECTION Inputs satisfy all
electrical and timing requirements.
