SINGLESTEPS
The SINGLESTEPS variable may be used to define another JOGGING interval instead of the default
1 step setting. If used with a telescope of f/6 and above, a single step might be too small to be
practical for fine focusing.
GET SINGLESTEPS
Get the current number of steps for the single step movement [uint32] (Default = 1).
Example command:
$BS GET SINGLESTEPS\

Example answer:
$BS STATUS SINGLESTEPS:1\

SET SINGLESTEPS
Set the number of steps for the ’single’ step movement [uint32]. By default this is 1. If the full
resolution is not needed, it might be more convenient to have two jogging modes rather than jogging
and single step mode. The valid range is [1, JOGSTEPS]

proportional to the stepper driver current for movement.

(uint8 [0-127], DEFAULT = 25, safety limit = 10). This is an expert setting and should only be
changed if one wants to use a different stepper motor or lift even heavier loads.
