With Mesa/Pico cards you don't need the base thread, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you won't get troublesome delays in the servo thread. (though they will be a much smaller percentage of the thread period) You will, however, gain a lot more io pins, and a much lower "granularity" in step timings, which might lead to improved performance. -- atp The idea that there is no such thing as objective truth is, quite simply, wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once.
