In this case, adjust the Vref voltage in the corresponding stepstick module.
Instruction on how to do this can be found in the forum.

On the forum I help to use the rod, I don't give fish.

This setting affects the current value of the stepper motor that is controlled.
If the Vref voltage is too high, the stepper motor heats up.
If the voltage is too low, the motor will lose its steps.
Unfortunately, you have to devote some time and choose this setting experimentally.
