The STR series is ideal for applications requiring basic step and direction control of a 2-phase step motor. All setup is done via dip switches and a rotary switch on the side of the drive, including motor selection, running current, idle current, and step resolution. STR drives are available with a large family of compatible 2-phase step motors, selected to optimize performance of both the drive and motor. **==> picture [315 x 357] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**
