Wills Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Goodmorning Everyone, I have recently started a project controlling a steppermotor with a Jazz JZ20-J-T20HS PLC. I got the idea from a youtube video that i recently came by. In the video they control a Steppermotor with a plc and a drive controller for the steppermotor. I know how to program the code in my plc u90 program but got a hard time figuring out the right "stepper motor drive controller". Is anyone known by this technic that can recommend a drive controller that i can put togheter with my jazz. Preferably a controller with a clear wiring diagram. I do have a "TB6600 Stepper Motor drive", availeble but i can't figure out how to wire this drive. The idea is to create a movement in which i can set the position and speed of the steppermotor. Below you find the link of the drive i have available right now: https://www.kiwi-electronics.nl/nl/tb6600-stepper-motor-driver-3752 Below you will find the link of the video i found online: Thank you very for the time, Wills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanT Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Hi Willis; The JZ20-J-T20HS has 2 NPN HSO -- Review the Spec Sheet and the Installation guide There are a few example programs in the Help-Examples-Motion of the U90 ladder Program. Review these. On the Drive, the DIR will determine the direction the stepper will turn ( on or OFF. the PUL will move the stepper ( High Speed output). For proper wiring, you will need the PDF data sheet for the driver to review the interface and determine wiring. Create a schematic of the interface, and we can review and guide.

Wills Posted February 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Hi Dant, Thank you for your reply. Below you will find the datasheet of the tb6600 driver If i am right i can only wire from the plc with a resistor in between. The plc will give 24 v if i am right and the possible voltage for the driver in the dir and pul section is 5 volts. https://www.mcielectronics.cl/website_MCI/static/documents/TB6600_data_sheet.pdf Greetings, WIlls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wills Posted February 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Hi Dant, Tommorow i will create a schematic. Thanks, Wills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. The high-speed outputs Dan speaks of are NPN open collectors: They provide a path to 0V, not a 24V signal. If you know the size of the opto-isolator current limiting resistor inside the stepper control you can put a resistor in series to limit the current to about 10 mA. The inputs to the stepper control must be isolated for this to work. If your stepper control inputs are separate and have plus and minus labels they probably are. You can also look at this post for a more detailed and pictorial explanation of NPN outputs- Note that in your instance, the way MattB originally wired it was to way you need to wire it- The proper resistor value for you may or may not be 2K. I was unable to open the data sheet link. You'll need to download that and post it as well; if you put too small of a resistor in series with a 24V power supply you'll blow up your stepper controller inputs. Draw up your schematic and post it so we can have a look. Joe T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wills Posted February 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 Goodday Joe and DanT, Thanks for the help in the comments above. I figured it out with the help and the wiring of MattB. The machine makes the right steps and works really well combined with some other sensors. Sorry for the late reaction. Greetings, Wills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
