StepConf asks for steps per revolution, I wrote 200.0 > there and it writes out the ini file with SCALE = 40.0 > But that is in motor revolutions with no microstepping in the driver. Most rotary tables further divide that by a large divisor, typically 90 turns of the motor for one turn of the table, or 4 degrees per full turn of the handwheel. So when you entered 200, that was slightly more than double, so instead of moving 90 degrees for an A90 command, it would have moved 200 degrees?
