Dear all, Thanks to Charles. My stepper motors have been worked stably with A4988 driver. I try to summarize as follow: Firstly driver output current have to be adjusted according to stepper motor specification. Secondly Scale have to be set properly, for example, for 400 pulse /rev, screw l

Dear Charles,Schooner, Bas de Bruijin, Due to time lag and working, sorry for late reply. could it be that instead of 4 rev/mm you have a reduction of 4 mm/rev ? > that would mean 100 full steps/mm and might make more sense. > First of all, I make mistake that is should be 4 rev/mm. So I chang

Dear all, Recently i am trying to use CRAMPS.ini(without cape just BBB) to drive step motor. My Motor model is: Moon's stepping motor Type 17HA6403-09N Driver is A4988 P8-13 and P8-14 are used as stepdir and step. First of all, I adjust the limit current to 0.43A according to motor
