Hi Eddie,

Looks like Mariss got a compeititor.

run unipolar hybrid PM step motors with current ratings from 0.75 to
7 amps per phase.

control interface ... is opto-isolated...

.... compatible with TTL drivers....

... power supply between 24 - 60 VDC

... never bundle the motor leads in the same cable as the STEP and
DIRECTION input leads.

Plus Mariss has the possibility to improve his sure-footed Geckos
further. Thought I read that the drivers can progress from 1/2
stepping at low speed to full stepping at high speed.

Fun
