Need Help!- Wiring this stepper motor

Superior electric Slo-Syn Motor M062-LE-511E

Can anyone help with wiring, this to my controller

What make is your controller? How many wires to the motor? (not counting encoder wires) Do you intend to use the encoder?

Motor has 8 wires, and I have the Xylotex 4 axis controller, and I would like to use the encoder but I don't know how to hook it up.

You can't use the encoder with a Zylotex board. An eight wire stepper can be wired unipolar, Bipolar series or Bipolar parallel.

Parallel is best. There are 4 coils in this motor. (2 wires per coil.) Use an ohmeter to find and mark the wire pairs that connect to a coil. Wires to a coil may be color coded:

EG: red/red white stripe.

Once you have the coils identified, wire them Bipolar Parallel as here:

What about using the encoders, what controller would I get to be able to make a closed lupe system? Thank you again, do you know what torque these are.
