Ballendo,
Thanks for the informative reply. There are no wires, just an 8-pin terminal block. I can check them with an ohmeter to see where the coils are. Can I assume that energizing each coil one at a time with 24vdc would allow me to see if the motors even work? I could also determine the coil sequence from that, right?
If I put together a basic driver circut with a 5804 driver chip would that work for testing?
I have heard that a three wire SLo-syn can be modified internally to become a stepper, but since this one is an 8pin I am hoping it will work.
Thanks again for your help.
