Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.

Gentlefolk,
I added a pointer to the shaft of the motor (like a clock hand) so I
could see what the motor was doing.
I then set the current and acceleration values.
I then ran a series of tests at various steps/rev and fiddled the
velocity until I could get stable performance (consistent
Stick something on the stepper shaft to be used as a pointer (a triangular
piece of paper) and then tell it to move 200 steps. If it moves a complete
revolution, you're done. Other wise try some other common values, 50, 400.

They're also meaningless to this

Meaningful variable names are the first to fifth rules of programming.
Even assembler language, in the depths of last century, had 'em.
No it didn't! (though some assemblers might have implemented labels, I suppose)

A 200 step motor is a good thing if you have a five pitch lead screw
(like on a Bridgeport milling machine) and you want each step to be a
thousandth of an inch. That's particularly true if you were back in the
days of paper tape and minimal computing ability.

The most common stepper motors are 50 pole, which
results in 200 steps per revolution when driven by the

You had hexadecimal. We had to program in decimal before hex was

The most common style of stepper motors used today have
permanent magnets. These magnets are always pulling and
will try to orient the rotor to one of the 50 pole positions
even when the stator coils are not energized.
When the two coils of the stator are energized, the poles
of the rotor orient
Ah yes programming with C

Presumably because the poles retain the magnetic polarity from last

I look at that bit of numerics and read out loud to myself.

line 119 if line 102 is greater than line 116
line 102 equals line 104 divided by 2

I changed the ini file as you told me, but it still does not work.
Some more ideas?
