Hi Scot,
For the G901 multiplier board, it's about $35 USD. I bought two, and am
using them. Next pair of drivers were G210 Geckos.
The multiplier board allows one to choose between 10 uStep, 5 uStep, 1/2
Step, and Full Step. It also allows the choice of + common or - common
signal input.
You unplug the opto isolator, and plug in the multiplier board. The
Servo versions of the Gecko's (G3xx) have a similar board, but I'm told
the onboard regulator is different for them.
