The sample config file set for "univstep" is what you want.  It should 
be on your
system in the sample directory, ...../configs/univstep

This is identical to a step-servo system, except that there is no mass 
to deal
with, and step pulses out = encoder counts in.  You set DIP switch positions
1-4 OFF, as the board was shipped.  That tells the board to count step 
pulses
and ignore the encoder inputs.

Most USC users use it this way.  In fact, if you have a step-servo system,
you can switch to open-loop step pulse generation just by flipping the
DIP switches.  You may then have to change the INPUT_SCALE and
PID settings.  Same with a stepper system with encoders, you can "turn
off" the encoder feedback by flipping the DIP switches.
