Controlling a stepper motor with a motordriver and Arduino

Question

I'm trying to controll a Nema 34 stepper with a motrordriver(EM-314) and Arduino Uno.

I have gotten the motor to rotate(slowly) by setting pin 5 on the Arduino to high. Pin 5 is connected to Preset 4 on the motordriver. I would like it to speed up, but im not sure how to do this.

Do any of you guys know how i can get it speed up?

Datasheet for the motordriver: http://media.oem.se/Archive/FilesArchive/102826.pdf

Currently i'm using a powerslupply on 0-48V 10A.

Every answer is apprciated!

Edit:

Pin 7 on arduino is connected to STEP IN Pin 6 is connected to DIR/STOP/RESET And i'm using a potentiometer to controll the speed.

Here is the code im using in Arduino.

int sensorPin = A0;
int sensorValue = 0;

void setup() {
  //Serial.begin(9600);
  pinMode(6, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(7, OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(6, LOW);
  digitalWrite(7, LOW);


  }

void loop() {

 sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);
 sensorValue = map(sensorValue, 0, 1023, 3600, 1);
 //Serial.print(sensorValue);
 //Serial.print("\n");
  if(sensorValue > 3000){
    digitalWrite(7, LOW);
   }
 if (sensorValue < 3000){
 digitalWrite(7, HIGH);
 delayMicroseconds (sensorValue);
 digitalWrite(7, LOW);
 delayMicroseconds(sensorValue);
 }
 }  

Answer 1

You control a stepper motor speed by controlling the step pulse frequency. It appears from your code that you are using a "sensor" but more likely a potentiometer to control the speed.

void loop() {
    sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);               // returns 0 to 1023
    sensorValue = map(sensorValue, 0, 1023, 3600, 1);  // returns 3600 to 1
    if(sensorValue > 3000){
        digitalWrite(7, LOW);
    }
    if (sensorValue < 3000){
        digitalWrite(7, HIGH);
        delayMicroseconds (sensorValue);     // delay depends on sensor
        digitalWrite(7, LOW);
        delayMicroseconds(sensorValue);      // delay depends on sensor
    }
 }  

• If the control voltage from "sensor" is low then the map() function sets the step delay to the longest value of 3.6 ms.
• As the control voltage is turned up towards maximum the delay will decrease to a minimum of 1 µs.

I suspect that your potentiometer is not connected properly. Enable the serial print function again to check. (This will completely mess up the timing of the rest of the program and slow down the step sequence.)

Answer 2

I would like it to speed up, but im not sure how to do this.

Short answer:
From the datasheet:

STEP IN is the input for stepping pulses. One steps is done with the positive edge of the input pulse.

DIR/STOP/RESET input is normally used to choose the rotational direction.

That's it. Actually you don't need more control signals.
The motor speed depends on the step mode and the frequency of your STEP signal, which could be a PWM signal from your Arduino.
With the DIR signal you can change rotation direction. Be aware not to exceed the motor's specified start/stop/max speed, otherwise steploss will occur.
