Introduction
2.6
Motor Control Frame (Includes Start/Stop Steps and Move Steps)
The GUI has an area which offers access to a series of very useful stepper control algorithms. This area
allows for determining the best current settings during running at various speeds, and when holding torque
is applied.
Motor motion can only happen by using an acceleration profile which will be detailed later on. A detailed
explanation of each stepper control section follows.
This frame allows the configuration and running of the stepper with the direction as specified by the DIR
checkbox, with the current decay mode as specified under the
Decay Mode
checkbox and the
microstepping resolution as specified under the
Step Mode
drop down box.
