HELPFULL: Nema17 & A4988 driver full step #358

Closed gekkie closed 1 year ago

gekkie commented 1 year ago

Not a bug but a hint for everyone trying to run a Nema17 (2.5A) in full step mode. The A4988 and the board will not be able to supply enough power to get these to run smooth! even when setting step pulse time ($0) to above 200 you will skip steps.

Back down to 1/16 and everything is smooth. Acceleration set to 250 ($110)

Again not a bug
