The answer is probably "both". You can use Stepconf to create a setup that matches your hardware, except you will have to pretend to have a parallel port. You will then need to go through the HAL file by hand modifying all parallel port lines to point to the correct BBB pins. You also probably want to swap the software stepgens for PRU stepgens. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
