Hello friends!
From a lot of people who commented and emailed me, I wanted plc247.com to write a tutorial on how to use the PLC S7-1200 to generate pulses to control the stepper motor because they said they couldn’t find the tutorial on Youtube or any website.
Therefore, today plc247.com will guide you to use Siemens S7-200 PLC to control stepper motor (Use Driver Leadshine DM542) simply and easily. Please note that only PLC Siemens Model DC/DC/DC (Transistor Output) supports pulse generation, Model Output Relay does not support.

I/O Address:
+ Q0.0 = Pulse Output Pin
+ Q0.1 = Direction Output Pin
+ Q0.2 = Off Stepper Motor
Note: Use 2k2Ω resistor to reduce voltage from 24VDC > 5VDC
