    driving 8wire stepper motor

    I have a problem in using/driving a 8 wire stepping motor.
    The motor is a imc/hansen (12v, 35ohms) and the part number is 237500-87A.
    It's a older model, I got it from the recycling, try to find the diagram, but couldn't find it.
    The motor has 2 red, yellow, grey and black wires and I know, which wires are connected,
    but I don't know how to connect to the driver?

    Does anybody knows how to connect these motor or has a wiring diagram?
