Changing the driver board.
« on: August 20, 2018, 19:58:16 »

would it be possible to use this driver board in the photo.
If it is I can then use 24 volts to drive my nema 23  motors.

Should be possible assuming interface is 5V.

You'd need to disable gear changing in the config utility, and select a microstrip mode that corresponds to the driver settings as the AstroEQ won't be able to change the microstepping mode of that driver.
