Hi Kirk; Can you get single steps to move the motor? I would try ...
All interesting suggestions. I did wish that the G540 could have microstepping disabled, but does not seem possible. It would appear (more stress testing today) that the issue was that I was close to the speed limit on the optos on the G540; elongated the pulses to it from the Mesa 5i25 and it *appears* to be fine. (using 4 axes; only 1 axis had a problem with this, and only at really slow step speeds, like << 1mm/min) I'll admit that as a relative newbie here I was focusing on speed of stepping, not slow stepping; I'll have to be more cognizant of what's outside the range of focus, if you know what I mean!
