Thank you for purchasing the Silverpak 17D or 17DE - Integrated Motor and R208 Driver.
This product is warranted to be free of manufacturing defects for one year from the date of
purchase.
Our technical support group is glad to work with you in answering your questions. If you
cannot find the solution to your particular application, or, if for any reason you need
additional technical assistance.
PLEASE READ BEFORE USING
Before you start, ensure that there is a suitable DC power supply. A current limited lab
supply is recommended for first time users to guard against the possibility of miswiring. In
addition, a suitable STEP and DIRECTION pulse source is also required.

CHANGES TO THE DRIVER BOARD
The Silverpak 17D/DE is an integrated Step Motor and R208 driver.
Prior to OCTOBER 1, 2005 the R208 driver board used slower opto-couplers, limiting the
step pulse timing. The old driver board also read step pulses on the rising edge. A revision
change was made on October 1, 2005, using more advanced opto-couplers. These new
opto-couplers can read faster data, yet they are also more sensitive to older PLC step
pulses. If your step pulse signal is not clear, the R208 will pick this up and the motor will
rotate “rough” and irratic. The new boards read step pulses on the falling edge. If the
falling edge of your step pulse is not a clear signal, the motor will rotate “rough” and irratic.
So far, only a small handful of customers have been affected by the change. Mostly those
that use PLC’s from the early 90’s and older. Customers can still request the old R208
boards in quantities of 100 per order (blanket releases are OK). The old boards are under
part number: R208-05.

5. CONNECTORS
A DB-9 female connector cable receives power and provides the control connections for the 17D
Unit. Active signals are optically isolated. An open-collector drive is required to provide pulses
for Step, levels for Direction and Disable/Enable.

6. GETTING STARTED
In order to properly connect your new 17D Unit, first take a look at Figure 4, below.
Here’s a list of the parts needed to make the motor run:
•+12 to 24 Volt Power Supply
•Additional +5 Volt Power Supply
•Function Generator
1. Ensure that the 17D is not connected to the Main Power Supply until the
following procedures have been properly carried out.
2. Connect Pin 8 to the Positive Terminal of the +5 VDC Power Supply.
3. Connect the Negative Terminal of the +5 VDC Power Supply to the Negative
Terminal of the Signal Generator. This will be referred to as the Signal
Ground.
4. Connect Pin 1 and Pin 6 to the Positive and Negative Terminals of the Main
Power Supply, respectively.
5. Adjust the Frequency of the Signal Generator to achieve the desired
operating speed.
Figure 4: Connections Diagram
WARNING! DO NOT DISCONNECT THE DB-9 CABLE FROM THE 17D UNIT WHILE
POWER IS STILL BEING SUPPLIED. THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE INTERNAL
DRIVER BOARD.
WARNING! If you do not have a +5 VDC Power Source, use a Resistor in series to
limit the current of the opto isolators. See following page for Resistor values. If
the current exceeds 10 mA, the opto couplers cease to function.
