Hello sir, i’m going to use my stepper motor for preventing a rider from holding the brakes then releasing the brakes on a bicycle so which pin from the 8 pins should i use?
I'm about to buy this same combo, 30kgf motor and CL23 with the purpose of replacing my cnc motors which are also 30kgf but open loop. What do you think of this Cloudray kit, does it look good to you? I found few videos talking about it.
Hello thanks for the video I have a Nema 34 with a hybrid drive. Everything works but the motor turns on directly when the current is switched on and the potentiometer runs counterclockwise, an idea what is wrong?
Are you using my Arduino program? I don't think it includes standstill, you need to set the enable-pin high to disable the drive or just don't send pulses on the step-pin.
hi, friend like and subscribed I have a question Can it be configured that when the machine is turned on, the motors always go to a specific point even if the machine remains in another position previously turned off? thank you
You can program this in the microcontroller or PLC or ... but not in the motor driver. You can search for the Z pulse and based on that you can move to a certain position, or you can use an limit switch. You can also look for a motor with an absolute encoder so you don't need to search for the Z pulse first but this only works for 1 rotation.
Hi... Why my motor only vibrating (it won't rotating) then driver Alarm blinking for 7times, I use HBS86H driver to drive my closed loop stepper motor.
hi I have the same products as you, but I don't know how to configure the SW8 switch Can you help me please ? what speed can the motors reach?? I set the driver: "steps per" to 800, "velocity" to 3000 and "acceleration" to 300 thanks in advance gilles
Switch 8 is used to switch between open (stepper) and closed (servo) loop, closed loop (servo) is generally better. The maximum speed depends on the load, you can test this without destroying the motor or driver, if it can't handle it, you will get an error (red light blinks).
Hello Stijns, i'm currently working with this motor driver combo! Sir if I need to get the encoder values to know the velocity in cps on my arduino board, Can I get this from the encoder cables and make like some sort of extra wire connection in the EA+ and EB+ to arduino analog pins? Or I need to make it open loop with the switch 8 of cle23 and use the encoder cables myself. I'm trying to make a closed loop velocity control for this. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.
I think you can get the encoder dat from the encoder cable, make sure you also connect the GND from the driver to the GND from the Arduino, I've not tested it myself.
Hello, I have ordered closed stepper motor from rtelligent . Can I use the encoder directly with Arduino or teensy . I want to keep update of current position. So right now I am using stepper motor with external optical encoder and i keep track of position. Also the ordered one has optical encoder. So just to confirm will it work with Arduino and teensy 4. I will connect A,B,gnd and 3.3v on teensy. Will it work without A- and B-
Yes, you can read the position from the encoder with a microcontroller. From my experience they work on 5V. You will need to add a common ground between the driver and microcontroller, otherwise you are reading a floating signal.
The rj11 is not often used to drive the motors, it is mostly used to change the settings. I do think it is possible to drive multiple motors by having the software open multiple times or recording the commands that are send and implementing those in your own software.
That depends on what you mean with 'accurately', what load you want to move and how long it should take. But generally a closed loop stepper does have those properties.
When I use the dip switches to set the motor to anything other than 40000 pul/rev the motor makes loud clicking noises, If i leave all dips off it works fine.
The encoder can sense the position with 360°/1000pulses accuracy, this means there is not really a benefit (if you look at it from a closed-loop accuracy perspective) for setting the driver higher than 1000 steps/rev, this does not mean that you should not do it. What is 'loud' to you and how is the motor mounted? More microstepping makes the motion smoother and more quiet but you lose torque.
hi mate, I was excited to find your video!! im currently having issues trying to set up this exact same motor driver combo, and want to test it outside my controller using an arduino, can you please share the sketch? you mentioned it was available in the description, however i cannot find it! thanks alot!
Hello, the Rtelligent software is compatible with the Cloudray driver, you can download the RTConfigurator on the projects GitHub repository (github.com/stijnsprojects/closed-loop-steppers) or on Rtelligents website (www.rtelligent.cn/download_list_3.html)

Hello can you home the stepper without the need of a sensor just with the encoder? Like a cnc ?
Some drivers have current sensing, this can be used for homing. I'm not sure if this one can so that.

hi can i know the make address to stepper motor controller or have a suggested method to run 6 motors using 0ne (01) usb port ?
The rj11 is not often used to drive the motors, it is mostly used to change the settings. I do think it is possible to drive multiple motors by having the software open multiple times or recording the commands that are send and implementing those in your own software.
would this motor allow me to accurately drive the shaft from 0 to 360 degrees with a raspberry pi?
That depends on what you mean with 'accurately', what load you want to move and how long it should take. But generally a closed loop stepper does have those properties.
super accuracy not required general direction for small 6v solar panel following the sun.@@stijnsprojects
When I use the dip switches to set the motor to anything other than 40000 pul/rev the motor makes loud clicking noises, If i leave all dips off it works fine.
Also noticed you say not to go above 1000, but in your clips you show all Dips being on, so thats 3600? I'm a big confused

Hello, I updated the description with the link to the code, let me know if you have any other questions.
Hi - where did you find the Ruitech configurator?

Thanks buddy !!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
