Hi Neale
I will try to wire it all up later today.
Kind regards

This will work as described directly from MPG but the problem will be the number of pulses per turn, probably 100, will mean take forever to move any distance.
For instance, even at full step it will take 2 turns for 1 rev of motor. I'm pretty sure those drives smallest micro stepping is 400 so that will be 4 turns per rev.
To move quickly you'll need multiplier and this will need some hardware.

Could use something like this if just want to drive up/down.

You'd have probably been better of buying analog drive that allows you to connect potentiometer and drive with voltage.

Hi Jazzcnc
The slow speed (only with MPG) is exactly what I want , so I can dial it in within less than 1/100mm.
The first item is the one I was thinking about, and I have maby also another plan with theese so they can be controlled by MPG, getting back to that later.
My health did not allow me to wire up the setup today, getting back with results when done.
Kind regards
