Re: the process...

This is a lot like cleaning stables. and none the easierwith the yahoo
system.That is what set me on this. I had a driver that suffered a
short when one of the power supply leads came loose and grounded to
the cart. I wanted to check the geckos and went looking for Mariss'
long post. It ytook a while but I found it. That set me to thinking.
some of this information is really useful wouldn't it be great if it
was more accessable. At this point I am just going though the messages
picking out the pearls. I seem to be able to do 1000 in an evening.
And I am learning a lot message#41398 deals with losing steps do to
timing problems and optos and gives a good touble shooting routine.
You will find that at yahoo group cced_archive/ file
steppers/inconsistant stepping 341398. So if I ended up doing this
myself it should be do0ne in about 3months. If anyone else would like
a piece of this pie there is plenty to go around. But I am betting
that people have lists of important messages and if those came forward
it could speed up the process.
take Care

ps I meant for this thread "the process" to bne on cced_archive...I
was just talking to myself and that has been a very private place. I
don't want to PO Bill so perhaps we could take this there.
