The device does not require a USB cable and can be connected directly to the EXT port of these Powerboxes. It can drive a large bipolar stepper motor (up to 2Amps per coil) with high precision.

Compatible with:

  • Ultimate Powerbox v3
  • Ultimate Powerbox v2
  • Pocket Powerbox Advance
  • Pocket Powerbox Micro

Microstepping

The controller supports microstepping that can be configured by software in full step, half step, 1/4 step and 1/8 step. This provides additional precision due to higher resolution and smooth rotation of the stepper motor shaft.

No USB port required

There is no need to occupy a USB port as the controller does not require USB connectivity. Just connect the RJ12 port to the EXT port and the controller will be recognized from the powerbox software. It's that simple!

In the box

1 x eXternal Motor Controller

1 x RJ12 to RJ12 - EXT cable (60cm)

1 x 2.1mm to 2.1mm DC cable (1m)

Note: The motor cable (RJ45 to RJ45) is now included in the Motor kit package Focus

Protections

The controller is fully protected against undervoltage, overcurrent and overtemperature events.

Second EXT port available

A second EXT port allows you to daisy-chain future equipment or connect your environmental sensor.
