Peter;

I had to do an is_inverted to the 2 gpio's that were stepgen 3's outputs.

But the waveform indicates its open drain, so the off, top of the 
waveform is being left open to get back to high, taking several tens of 
microseconds. Is there something I can put into hal file to restore the 
active pullup?

The second thing I noticed is that the pulse trains aren't steady, with 
discontinuities enough (20%) to putz with the torque of a stepper, 
making it stall quite easily at speeds well prior to its top speed.

Is there anything I can do about that?

Thanks Peter.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
