Help setting up Ethernet Smooth Steper

Actually, step frequency is not the same same thing as pulse width; lets use some easy numbers for math:

• You have a 1 kHz pulse frequency, which means you have 1000 pulse occurring per second, or one every ms
• If the pulse had a 50% duty cycle (on half the time off half the time) it would be on for 0.5ms or 500 us for its pulse width.
• If the pulse had a 1% duty cycle, it would have a pulse with of 10 us and then be off for 990 us.
• If the pulse had a 90% duty cycle, it would have a pulse with of 900 us and then be off for 100us.

Step frequency is how often the pulses are being generated. Pulse Width is how long each pulse is on before it turns off to await for the next pulse to be generated.

Start with 1 kHz. You can adjust from there later if you need too, but you probably won't.
