Connecting to a Host using RS-485
Before configure the drive by StepSERVO Quick tuner software, use the CAT5 cable to connect the drive(COM1 or COM2)
and host.
(NOTE: The RS-485 port on the drive is isolated from internal circuitry of the drive. So the GND of each drive’s RS-485 port
must be connected together. The first drive’s GND of the RS-485 port must be connected to the GND of RS-485 port on the
host PC or Controller)

RS-485 network connection
Multiple –R model drive network can be built via dual RS-485 communication port by daisy chain cable or network cable
provided.
RS-485 Four-wire Configuration
RS-485 four-wire system utilize separate transmit and receive wires. One pair of wires connect the host’s transmit
signals(TX+/TX-) to each drive’s RX+/RX- receive terminals. The other pair connects the drive’s TX+/TX- terminals to the
host’s receive signals. A logical ground terminal is provided on each drive and can be used to keep all the drives at the same
ground potential. The first drive’s logical GND of the RS-485 bus must connect to host’s ground.
Four-wire Connection
Connect the drive’s RX+ to the TX+ terminal of the host controller, and connect the drive’s RX- to the TX- terminal of the host
controller. Connect the drive’s TX+ to the RX+ terminal of the host controller, and connect the drive’s TX- to the RX- terminal
of the host controller.
Connect the drive’s GND and the host’s GND to a same ground.
RS-485 Tow-wire Configuration
In a two-wire system, the data transmitting and receiving use a same cable. The host must stop its transmitting before
receiving data. That means the host must stop transmit data before drive begins to answer a query which just come from
the host, otherwise the host cannot receive any data witch sent from a drive. There is a transmit delay parameter that can be
adjusted to compensate for a host that is slow to disable its transmitter. This adjustment can be set over the network using
the TD command, it also can be set by using the StepSERVO Quick Tuner software. Users can set a shorter transmit delay in a
four-wire system.
Two-wire connection
The RX+ and TX+ of the drive connect to the host’s + in parallel. The RX- and TX- of the drive connect to the host’s - in
parallel. Connect the drive’s GND and the host’s GND to a same ground.

2.6 Connecting the Drive to Your PC using Ethernet
The RJ45 connector of SSDC-D/IP is conformed to 100BASE-TX(100Mbps).
Please use the CAT5 or CAT5e(or higher class) net cable.
This process requires three steps:
• Physically connect the drive to your network (or directly to the PC)
• Set the drive’s IP address
• Set the appropriate networking properties on your PC.
Addresses, Subnets, and Ports
Every device on an Ethernet network must have a unique IP address. In order for two devices to communicate with each
other, they must both be connected to the network and they must have IP addresses that are on the same subnet. A subnet
is a logical division of a larger network. Members of one subnet are generally not able to communicate with members of
another unless they are connected through special network equipment (e.g. router). Subnets are defined by the choices of IP
addresses and subnet masks.
If you want to know the IP address and subnet mask of your PC, select Start…All Programs… Accessories…Command
Prompt. Then type “ipconfig” and press Enter. You should see something like this:
If your PC’s subnet mask is set to 255.255.255.0, a common setting known as a Class C subnet mask, then your machine can
only talk to another network device whose IP address matches yours in the first three octets. (The numbers between the dots
in an IP address are called octets.) For example, if your PC is on a Class C subnet and has an IP address of 192.168.0.20, it
can talk to a device at 192.168.0.40, but not one at 192.168.1.40. If you change your subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 (Class B)
you can talk to any device whose first two octets match yours. Be sure to ask your system administrator before doing this.
Your drive’s IP Address is stored internally in nonvolatile memory. There is a rotary switch to set the IP address. The default
addresses are in below table.

Rev. 1.0
7/31/2019
Page 16
SSDC-R/C/IP Hardware Manual
From the SW1 to SWE, you can redefine the IP address by StepSERVO Quick Tuner software. SW0 fixed address
“10.10.10.10”, it is a recovery address. If someone were to change the setting and not write it down or tell anyone then you
will not be able to communicate with your drive. The only way to “recover” it is to apply power to the drive with the network
cable unplugged.
One of the great features of Ethernet is the ability for many applications to share the network at the same time. Ports are
used to direct traffic to the right application once it gets to the right IP address. The UDP eSCL port in our drives is 7775. To
send and receive commands using TCP, use port number 7776. You’ll need to know this when you begin to write your own
application. You will also need to choose an open (unused) port number for your application. Our drive doesn’t care what
that is; when the first command is sent to the drive, the drive will make note of the IP address and port number from which it
originated and direct any responses there. The drive will also refuse any traffic from other IP addresses that is headed for the
eSCL port. The first application to talk to a drive “owns” the drive. This lock is only reset when the drive powers down.
One final note: Ethernet communication can use one or both of two “transport protocols”: UDP and TCP. eSCL commands
can be sent and received using either protocol. UDP is simpler and more efficient than TCP, but TCP is more reliable on large
or very busy networks where UDP packets might occasionally be dropped.
Option 1: Connect a Drive to Your Local Area Network
If you have a spare port on a switch or router and if you are able to set your drive to an IP address that is compatible with
your network, and not used by anything else, this is a simple way to get connected. This technique also allows you to connect
multiple drives to your PC. If you are on a corporate network, please check with your system administrator before connecting
anything new to the network. He or she should be able assign you a suitable address and help you get going.
If the default address is not acceptable for you network, you can enter a new IP address using StepSERVO Quick Tuner. If your
PC address is not in 192.168.1. subnet, you will have to change your subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 in order to talk to your
drive. To change your subnet mask:
1. On Windows XP, right click on “My Network Places” and select properties. On Windows 7, click Computer. Scroll down the
left pane until you see “Network”. Right click and select properties. Select “Change adapter settings”
2. You should see an icon for your network interface card (NIC). Right click and select properties.
3. Scroll down until you see “Internet Properties (TCP/IP)”. Select this item and click the Properties button. On Windows 7
and Vista, look for “(TCP/IPv4)”
4. If the option “Obtain an IP address automatically” is selected, your PC is getting an IP address and a subnet mask from the
DHCP server. Please cancel this dialog.
5. If the option “Use the following IP address” is selected, life is good. Change the subnet mask to “255.255.0.0” and click
OK.

Option 2: Connect a Drive Directly to Your PC
1. Connect one end of a CAT5e STP cable into the LAN card (NIC) on your PC and the other to the drive.
You don’t need a special “crossover cable”; the drive will automatically detect the direct connection and make the necessary
physical layer changes.
2. The default IP address is “10.10.10.10”.
3. To set the IP address of your PC:
a. On Windows XP, right click on “My Network Places” and select properties.
b. On Windows 7, click Computer. Scroll down the left pane until you see “Network”. Right click and select
properties. Select “Change adapter settings”
4. You should see an icon for your network interface card (NIC). Right click and select properties.
a. Scroll down until you see “Internet Properties (TCP/IP)”. Select this item and click the Properties button.
b. On Windows 7 and Vista, look for “(TCP/IPv4)”
5. Select the option “Use the following IP address”. Then enter the address “10.10.10.10”. This will give your PC an IP
address that is on the same subnet as the drive. Windows will know to direct any traffic intended for the drive’s IP address
to this interface card.
6. Next, enter the subnet mask as “255.255.255.0”.
7. Be sure to leave “Default gateway” blank. This will prevent your PC from looking for a router on this subnet.
8. Because you are connected directly to the drive, anytime the drive is not powered on, your PC will annoy you with a
small message bubble in the corner of your screen saying “The network cable is unplugged.”

Option 3: Use Two Network Interface Cards (NICs)
This technique allows you to keep your PC connected to your LAN, but keeps the drive off the LAN, preventing possible IP
conflicts or excessive traffic.
1. If you use a desktop PC and have a spare card slot, install a second NIC and connect it directly to the drive using a CAT5e
cable. You don’t need a special “crossover cable”; the drive will automatically detect the direct connection and make the
necessary physical layer changes.
2. If you use a laptop and only connect to your LAN using wireless networking, you can use the built-in RJ45 Ethernet
connection as your second NIC.
3. The default IP address is “10.10.10.10”.
4. To set the IP address of the second NIC:
a. On Windows XP, right click on “My Network Places” and select properties.
b. On Windows 7, click Computer. Scroll down the left pane until you see “Network”. Right click and select properties.
Select “Change adapter settings”
5. You should see an icon for your newly instated NIC. Right click again and select properties.
a. Scroll down until you see “Internet Properties (TCP/IP)”. Select this item and click the Properties button.
b. On Windows 7 and Vista, look for “(TCP/IPv4)”
6. Select the option “Use the following IP address”. Then enter the address “10.10.10.10”. This will give your PC an IP address
that is on the same subnet as the drive. Windows will know to direct any traffic intended for the drive’s IP address to this
interface card.
7. Next, enter the subnet mask as “255.255.255.0”. Be sure to leave “Default gateway” blank. This will prevent your PC from
looking for a router on this subnet.
8. Because you are connected directly to the drive, anytime the drive is not powered on your PC will annoy you with a small
message bubble in the corner of your screen saying “The network cable is unplugged.”

2.8 Choosing a Power Supply
The main considerations when choosing a power supply are the voltage and current requirements for the application.
2.8.1 Voltage
The SSDC drive is designed to give optimum performance between 24 and 48 Volts DC. Choosing the voltage depends on
the performance needed and motor/drive heating that is acceptable and/or does not cause a drive over-temperature. Higher
voltages will give higher speed performance but will cause the SSDC driver to produce higher temperatures. Using power
supplies with voltage outputs that are near the drive maximum may significantly reduce the operational duty-cycle.
SSDC03
For the SSDC03 drive, the extended range of operation can be as low as 11 VDC minimum to as high as 53 VDC maximum.
When operating below 11 VDC, the power supply input may require larger capacitance to prevent under-voltage and internalsupply alarms. Current spikes may make supply readings erratic. The supply input cannot go below 11 VDC for reliable
operation. This will not fault the drive. Absolute maximum power supply input is 53 VDC at which point an over-voltage
alarm and fault will occur. When using a power supply that is regulated and is near the drive maximum voltage of 53 VDC, a
voltage clamp may be required to prevent over-voltage when regeneration occurs. When using an unregulated power supply,
make sure the no-load voltage of the supply does not exceed the drive’s maximum input voltage of 53 VDC.
SSDC06/10
For the SSDC06/10 drive, the extended range of operation can be as low as 18 VDC minimum to as high as 75 VDC
maximum. When operating below 18 VDC, the power supply input may require larger capacitance to prevent under-voltage
and internal-supply alarms. Current spikes may make supply readings erratic. The supply input cannot go below 18 VDC for
reliable operation. This will not fault the drive. Absolute maximum power supply input is 75 VDC at which point an overvoltage alarm and fault will occur. When using a power supply that is regulated and is near the drive maximum voltage of 75
VDC, a voltage clamp may be required to prevent over-voltage when regeneration occurs. When using an unregulated power
supply, make sure the no-load voltage of the supply does not exceed the drive’s maximum input voltage of 75 VDC.

2.8.2 Supply Current
The maximum supply currents required by the SSDC are shown in the charts below at different power supply voltage inputs.
The SSDC power supply current is lower than the winding currents because it uses switching amplifiers to convert a high
voltage and low current into lower voltage and higher current. The more the power supply voltage exceeds the motor voltage,
the less current will be required from the power supply.
It is important to note that the current draw is significantly different at higher speeds depending on the torque load to the
motor. Estimating how much current is necessary may require a good analysis of the load the motor will encounter.

3.3 Analog Inputs
SSDC series drive has two analog signal inputs which can accept signal range of 0-5V, 0-10V, ±5V and ±10V. The drive can
be configured to operate at velocity mode or position mode that is proportional to the analog input.
Use the StepSERVO Quick Tuner to configure the input range, offset, deadband and noisy filter frequency.
SSDC series provides a +5V/100mA limit power supply that can be used to power external devices such as potentiometer.
It is not the most accurate supply for reference, for more precise readings use an external supply that can provide desired
accuracy.

4 Mounting the Drive
Use the M3 or M4 screw to mount the SSDC series drive. The Drive should be securely fastened to a smooth, flat metal
surface will help conduct heat away from the chassis. If this is not possible, forced airflow from a fan maybe required to
prevent the drive from overheating.
• Never use the drive in a place where there is no air flow or the surrounding air is more than 40°C
• Never put the drive where it can get wet or where metal or other electrically conductive particles can get on
circuitry
• Always provide air flow around the drive. When mounting multiple SSDC drives near each other, maintain at
least 2cm of space belween drive.
5 LED Error Codes
The SSDC series StepSERVO package uses red and green LEDs to indicate status. When the motor is enabled, the green LED
flashes slowly. When the green LED is solid, the motor is disabled. Errors are indicated by combinations of red and green
flashes as shown below.
