Hi Guys
I am ready to wire a box for new router. I have twin screws on
the x axis with separate motors.{I know should have used connecting
belt} SO, I have to drive two steppers in synch. CncPro will have 4th
axis "follow" any other OR, one gecko for both motors? Two geckos from
same pins?
Marris said something about a transistor circuit if doing the
latter,???
Opinions and advice appreciated
thanks
Carl
ps. NEXT time I will design for belt between screws!!!
