This is exactly what I needed, thanks!

Hi,
I have a 6 wires stepper motor. And I used a meter to measure their resistance and divided them into 2 groups. The measurements are as follows
1,2 wires = 0.5 ohm
1, 3 wires = 2.5 ohm
2, 3 wires = 2.5 ohm
4, 5 wires = 2.5 ohm
4, 6 wires = 2.5 ohm
5, 6 wires = 0.5 ohm

I think wire number 3 and wire 4 are center tap and do not understand why the resistance between 1 and 3 connection is not half of that 1 and 2 connection. Is something wrong with my meter setting

How do i connect to power to rotate uni-direction or if i can use it as bi direction.
Do i need to have step down transformer as 230 V is available with me

Congratulations and THANK YOU, I am trying to set up a bench lathe to work with Mach3 and steppers but did not got a wire connecting diagram from the manufacturer (Sanyo Denki) even with the model + Type + serial numbers.
THKS again
