G'day Brian,
This is a cut down version of the test program for my coil winding machine, this definitely works on PicoMite RP2350B V6.02.01 Maybe try running this and see if you get some motion and add the rest from there.
' prog to test stepper functions
Option default integer
SetTick 200,Show_Pos
Stepper init
Stepper axis x,gp0,gp1,,,200,400,50,5
Stepper axis y,gp2,gp3,,,400,600,100,5
Stepper position home
Stepper run
Stepper gc g1 x100 y80 f500
Stepper gc g0 x0 y0
Do
Pause 100
Loop Until Peek(stepper active)=0 ' wait until motion complete
Pause 250 ' wait for final position update
Stepper close
End
Sub Show_Pos
Print @(100,100),"X-POS= " Str$(Peek(stepper x),-4,4)
Print @(100,120),"Y-POS= " Str$(Peek(stepper y),-4,4)
End Sub
> option list
PicoMite MMBasic RP2350B V6.02.01
OPTION FLASH SIZE 16777216
OPTION COLOURCODE ON
OPTION PICO OFF
OPTION CPUSPEED (KHz) 200000

Also note that the stepper system works in the background, I found this very confusing at the beginning, the motors can be running while you are sitting at the command prompt.

Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.
