mr chips - if i understand current limiting correctly, the xylotex board will not draw more current than you set it for - there is some equation to figure the current a given stepper might use in different winding configurations. there is a difference depending on if you do parallel or serial bipolar - i think.
most people would tell you to goto the yahoo.com xylotex base, where the xylotex guy answers all the questions.
