Hi,

it would be awesome if you could add support for a different stepper board for focusing as well. https://arduino-info.wikispaces.com/SmallSteppers Currently the only way to use those boards seems to be https://github.com/fehlfarbe/arduino-motorfocus

Thanks Karsten

The driver is designed to support any stepper motor controller, which uses DIR/STEP pins. The one you mention will not be supported by this driver. It requires totally new driver approach to control a stepper motor. Feel free to use parts of my code though.
