The STM24C-3CN integrated stepper is designed to operate on a CANopen communication network and conforms to Can in Automation (CiA) DS301 and DSP402 specifications. It supports Profile Position, Profile Velocity, and Homing modes, as well as the ability to run stored Q programs via Applied Motion-specific CANopen objects. All STM24 integrated steppers are setup and configured using Applied Motion’s ST Configurator™ software.

The STM24C-3CN comes with 3 digital inputs and 1 digital output. The digital inputs accept signals of 5-24 VDC and can be used for connecting end-of-travel limit switches, jog switches, quadrature encoder signals, PLC outputs, sensors, or many other signal types. The digital output can be connected to PLC inputs, counters, lights, relays, or other devices. The unit also comes with 1 analog input that accepts 0-5 VDC signals, which can be used for velocity and position control.

The STM24C-3CN comes with an RS-232 port for programming and a CANopen port for network communications.
