I cant find any useful reference. Any ideas? Thanks.

I think it's unlikely. This board can't communicate with the drivers using UART, so most likely it's not possible. You can use these drivers (and others) in standalone mode only. Keep in mind while sensorless homing is "cool", it's a lot more inaccurate compared to regular homing with microswitches.

Unfortunately, we can only support STEP/DIR and SPI, so this feature cannot be used.
