GPIO controlled operation described in the device data sheet. The GUI also allows operating the device in
this mode. The GUI comes up with “SPI” controlled operation by default. To operate the device with GPIO
control select “H/W” in the “Interface Mode” selector in the STEPPER MOTOR CONTROL tab. The selector
can be changed only while the “Motor Driver” slide switch is in “Asleep” position.
