8 wire stepper motor

[kaderick]

I have a couple stepper motors that I don't have wiring diagram for. I checked the leads for continuity and found out that

yellow and green
red and blue
black and brown
orange and white

are connected. Now my question, how do I know what ones to connect to phase A, B,C,D on my gecko 201's. Thanks

If my memory is correct, you connect one wire to a battery ground, then touch the next wire to the positive. If the motor shaft rotates clockwise mark it A+ then get another wire that moves the motor CCW an mark it A-

Then repeat that for each set as B+ B-

I hope hat is correct!

I'll try to attach the diagram here, but if it doesn't work , my email address is gone 4pepsi@yahoo.com

I'm able to open this up here. It's a pdf file, you'll need acrobat reader, which you probably already have. It's a very good diagram. I hope was of help
Have fun!

I'll have to get another diagram for your colors. I downloaded a few that pertain to all of the colors manufacturers use.
I wouldn't tell you to do that until I go back and see the actual diagram.

I'm not sure that this person here that replied is telling youright.

I wouldn't want to see you mess up your contorler. I'll get back to later i need to run to work now

I have a japan servo KY86SM1 (which might be similar to the KT86SM1) I don't have the wiring diagram even from the japan servo site. The wires pairs are : violet-brown yellow-orange red-blue green-black. Do anyone have the diagram ? THKS
