Problems with stepsticks

Post by razh00 »

HI,

i recently bought 5 stepsticks like these: http://www.geeetech.com/wiki/index.php/ ... ver_Module

Im using them with a ramps 1.4 and arduino boards, the problem is that the maximum current i can get is 230mA when the potentiometer is all turned.

¿is there any solutions for this problem?

Thanks

Hi, friend
I am sorry for missing about adjust current in wiki. There is a knob that is a slide rheostat on board , the current will change when you adjust the knob.
If other problems ,please tell me.
