INTRODUCING THE SD17060B

This manual is designed to get you up and running quickly using the SD17060B or

SD17060B-25 stepper drivers. As such, it assumes you have some basic knowl-

edge of stepper systems, such as the resolution you want run your motor at, and

the reasons why you'd want to use Idle Current Reduction and the reasons why

you wouldn't. If these terms or ideas are new to you, we're here to help. AMCI has

a lot of information on our website and we are adding more all the time. If you

can't find what you're looking for at http:///www.amci.com, send us an e-mail or

call us. We're here to back you up with all of our knowledge and experience.

Applicable Units

This manual applies to all SD17060B drivers manufactured after December of 2008 as well as some

SD17060B drivers manufactured during December of 2008. This manual also applies to all SD17060B-03

and SD17060B-25 drivers. You will be able to determine the date of manufacture from the serial number on

the driver. Serial numbers for all AMCI drivers are formed from a date code and sequential number. The

serial number format is shown below.

"D" prefix on all Drive

Month of Manufacture

Year of Manufacture

For SD17060B Drives...



If your year of manufacture is 2009 or later, (digits 3 and 4 are "09" or greater), then this manual

applies.



If your month and year of manufacture is December of 2008, (digits 1 through 4 are "1208"), and the

sequential number is "0135" or greater, then this manual applies.



If your month and year of manufacture is December of 2008, (digits 1 through 4 are "1208"), and the

sequential number is less than "0135" then most of the information in this manual applies. The only

difference is that these older SD17060B drivers require external resistors for input signals greater than

5Vdc. Refer to Appendix A on page 18 for additional information.



If your month and year of manufacture is November of 2008 or earlier, (digits 1 through 4 are "1108"

or less), then most of the information in this manual applies. The only difference is that these older

SD17060B drivers require external resistors for input signals greater than 5Vdc. Refer to Appendix A

on page 18 for additional information.

For SD17060B-03 Drives...



The "-03" option was added in February of 2010. This manual applies to all SD17060B-03 units.

For SD17060B-25 Drives...



SD17060B-25 drivers have different resolution settings than the SD17060B and SD17060B-03. In

addition to this change, the SD17060B-25 will only accept 24Vdc input signals. The SD17060B-25

cannot be used in systems that have 5Vdc differential or 12Vdc single ended signals.
