The user interface looks different but historically it does have messages I posted so must be right. I was forced to upgrade my WIN-7 system to WIN-10 last spring and so many things broke after that. Still living with the after effects of the Microsoft virus called WIN-10. Thanks John

and I suspect the velocity setting of 0.000208/250mS. Does that make sense? Is there a way to log each Z axis speed/distance command so I can see what it's doing? Or have I misunderstood how the power tapping synchronized motion is done. Thanks

nicely formed and the dsPIC software reported both position and RPM. I have a photo of that setup but it's too large for the forum. Looking at other stepper motors (size 23) I see that many don't even have the holes this motor has for mounting a plate so Roland's idea might be better. John
