Title: 7 wire stepper motor
Post by: AbhishekAnand on March 24, 2014, 03:02:10 PM
I have seen stepper motors with 4/5/6/8 wires. But recently I bought 2 steppers from an online vendor which somehow has 7 wires. Can you please help me with the connections of this motor.

The website says its a 6 wire motor and now they wont respond to any mails.
This is the motor I bought.

One of the wires could be a case ground?
Try the different wires with a multimeter.

Am I supposed to connect the case ground to the GND of my circuit..?
