Need Help!- Sanyo Step-Syn 103-807-7 Gecko 540 Wire Color Codes

[Wrangler97]

Hello, I have a Terco Milling Machine, it came with sanyo step-syn 103-807-7 motors. They are 1.8 Degree, 1.8 V, 4.8 A. Steppers. They are unipolar six wire with colors White, Black, Brown, Gray, Blue, Yellow/Green, I have searched and found nothing for this. White and Black have continuity. I just got my Gecko Drive in today and would like to wire up my new mill. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you can figure out your leads using an ohm meter. Measure ohms between all of the wires and record the results. You should have 2 sets of 3 wires that have continuity. These sets are your two phases.

Within the each phase 2 of the wires will measure twice the resistance between them as the third will beween the other two. The wire that measures half the resistance is your center tap.

here is a web page to help explain:

I would connect the two wires with the most resistance between them to A and /A on the Gecko, then connect the two wires with the most resistance form the other set of three, to B and /B. Make sure to cap the centertaps separately.

This should get you going. If you need more preformance you might try wiring half coil.

I found the center taps and found the firing order. Thanks for the info
