no microstepping and direct-drive. 200 steps per rev gives 1.8 degrees per step. I have to get scale right for all axes, probably the 4th axis will have a demultiplier so the scale will be different but that is left for later, as the A axis will be physically part-time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
