2007-11-04 Thread Kirk Wallace
I am starting work on my mill setup, which uses Sanyo BLDC motors and Rutex drives. The Rutex drives have SPI and step/direction inputs. Without thinking too much about it, I brought up the standard stepper configuration in Axis and before I tried to command a move, I grabbed the motor shaft and
