Re: wiring geckos to stepper motors - common wires to where

Dave,

I have the info from the manufacturer -Anaheim Automation, but want to
make sure that, in their wiring instruction (the 8 wire motor (being
wired with 6 wires for unipolar)) the 2 wires connected together do
not connect to anything else. From Mauriss' white paper, it looks
like I am correct. He has a diagram of an 8 wire motor being wired
with 6 wires so I will follow that. I'll bet it works...

Thanks,
Keith Clark
