Can you explain what you mean by this? I tried googling, but have no idea what this term means. EMC can do a lot more than just step/direction, including software pattern generation (though no microstepping). It can also do PWM/direction at low frequencies, and with fairy inexpensive hardware (like the $79 Mesa 7i43) it can do pwm at high frequencies too. If you need something more exotic then remember this is an open-source project, so extra features are just a matter of picking up a compiler and adding them (or, more likely, persuading someone else to add them) -- atp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
