    3DM860 driver/controller question

    Hi,
    I bought a 3DM860 driver but didn't realise its a 3phase driver. Now that i'm looking at the description properly I see its clearly stated as 3ph.
    My question is is there any way that can drive my 2ph 4 wire Nema 34 from it or am I limited to a servo or similar, I dont have at the mo?
    Thanks

    No way that will drive a 4-wire stepper. It won't drive a servo either, only a 3-phase stepper.
