Re: How to check Gecko G201?????

is your resistor from 11 to 12 ? or are you connecting that to
another source ?

also, depending on your software, make sure you are driving the
output pins from your computer properly. I stumbled on TurboCNC as I
had them reversed in software.

step and directon pins are from a seperate power supply, preferably
from the PC, 5 volt on pin 10, step on pin 9 and dir on pin 8.
these are optically isolated so you do not need any other isolators.
