98% of the members of our group are more "machinists" than "E.E.'s",
so they clearly have NO clue how a stepper with windings rated at,
say, 4 amps, 3 volts....
but I am CERTAIN some E.E.'s in here like you, Mariss, etc., can do
so admirably.

Jan,
I'm with you on this. I did at one point go to www.geckodrive.com
and read the stepper motor white papaers. I think I even undertood
what this was all about... for about 10 minutes anyway.

I ended up using servo's and Gecko 320's... its a whole lot easier,
no lost steps, and, in the end, cheaper.
