Re: I am loosing one step. weir!

I set my geckos to microstep 1/10 and aparently is working fine now.
however; when doing canned cycle like peck (g83) where the speed
change when retracting and feeding back it looses steps. I think the
problem should be the pulse width.

Does anybody has a sugestion what would the best setting for pulse
width?
