Thanks, Andy, I wondered if my email had BO. It is interesting that they show up in the archives and in digests, but evidently get spam folder-ed for individual e-mails.
I can’t find them now. I get the user and dev digests as well as I read some of the forum stuff. I suspect that I saw something in the middle of a thread where someone was setting up a closed system and I missed the part about closed loop. I don’t have encoders for my steppers (yet). So I will initially set up position mode.
