How to control two stepper motor driver EVKs at the same time 

When the instance of ROHM_Stepper class is instantiated with the parameter “TWO” the methods as described in this FAQ are 
available with the suffixes “_M” and “_S”. These will allow controlling the two shields individually.   
See sketch examples for references.
