Production Specification

The SNAP-SCM-ST2 pulse output module is a two-channel serial communication module that provides pulse and direction signals for stepper motor drives. Each channel is isolated from the logic side. The module can either output a constant frequency, or it can ramp from one frequency to another.

The SNAP-SCM-ST2 links up to two stepper motors which can then be controlled by a SNAP PAC controller running a PAC Control™ programming strategy. LED indicators are provided to indicate activity on each port.

The module snaps onto an Opto 22 SNAP PAC mounting rack. SNAP PAC racks accommodate up to 4, 8, 12, or 16 I/O modules, with a maximum of 8 serial modules (including SNAP-SCM-ST2) on any one rack. Because the SNAP-SCM-ST2 module is mounted on these standard racks with other SNAP I/O modules, you can use the combination of analog, digital, and serial modules required by your application at the location where they are needed.

SNAP Serial Communication Modules User's Guide

The SNAP-SCM-232, SNAP-SCM-485-422, SNAP-SCM-PROFI, SNAP-SCM-W2, SNAP-SCM-CAN2B, and SNAP-SCM-ST2 serial communication modules are designed for use with the SNAP PAC System and can also be used in standalone SNAP I/O units.

Each of these modules conveniently provides serial data at a remote Ethernet location.

  • The SNAP-SCM-232 and SNAP-SCM-485-422 typically interface with printers, scales, chart recorders, and barcode systems.
  • The SNAP-SCM-PROFI provides a standard electrical interface with PROFIBUS DP® networks.
  • The SNAP-SCM-CAN2B provides an interface to a Controller Area Network (CAN), so your SNAP PAC system can receive data from CANbus devices.
  • The SNAP-SCM-ST2 provides pulse and direction signals for stepper motor drives.
  • The SNAP-SCM-W2 complies with the Wiegand interface format and is used for access control applications.
