KL2531 - General connection examples

WARNING
Risk of injury through electric shock and damage to the device!

Bring the Bus Terminals system into a safe, de-energized state before starting mounting, disassembly or wiring of the Bus Terminals.

Note
Connect the motor strands correctly!
  • one motor strand to clamping points A1 and A2,
  • the other motor strand to clamping points B1 and B2.

Connection types

The KL2531 Stepper Motor terminal has bipolar output stages and can control bipolar and unipolar motors.
