Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] NEMA 23 changing rotation direction on one motor

Hi Troy,

I was talking about the Dir (direction) pin state, #9. You can also
swap the wires of ONE COIL of the motor (bipolar).

Have you tried the TurboCNC list? They are good on support! And the
$20 "contribution" is REALLY reasonable!
