It's pulse controlled so I figure it shouldnt be an issue to run it with an arduino or esp32.
I've read around like crazy trying to find someone in a similiar situation but I'm still clueless on how I should code this.
I've ran Nema 17 steppers before but then I've been able to use existing libraries.
It's not stated anywhere what model the driver is.
Could someone please point me in the right direction?
They are designed to be a drop-in replacement for regular open loop motors, so you should be able to use any stepper library that supports the typical STEP/DIR interface.
Some of the closed loop motor/drivers also handle an acceleration profile, it's not clear if these do or not. I would guess not.
It's not very clear, but I think the diagram is trying to say that the closed loop stepper on the left is equivalent to a motor + driver + encoder cable. IOW the closed loop stepper incorporates all the things on the right.
Yes, that's it exactly. The driver is integrated and what they mean is that it replaces the external driver+cable.
Regarding the driver itself I do not know the model and if it is equivalent to the HBS57H or if they just used a picture of one because they felt like it
Only mention of the driver is that it's a 32 bit DSP chip.
I'm looking into MobaTools now, if I'm not missing something crucial I should be able to get it running with that I think.
I need to be able to change both the speed and distance(# of steps) on the fly, while it is running. Don't know if moba is the best with that in mind, If there's some better way I'd be happy to learn about it
What I meant was that I was uncertain whether I could use any generic library (that's not driver specific) or if I would have to use a particular library that's specific for this kind of driver/closed loop.
