Hello,

with the new firmware V6.02.00, stepper motors can also be controlled (up to 3).
There is also a separate PDF for the software. But how do I connect them electrically and what are the preferred pins?
I would like to connect two steppers. Which drivers do I need and how are they connected?

I would be grateful for any help.

It supports stepper drivers which are based on step/dir input:

STEPPER AXIS axis, step_pin, dir_pin [, enable_pin] [, dir_invert] [, steps_per_mm] [,
max_vel] [, max_accel]

All of these should work with MMBasic together with e.g. these motors
