BS2+Seperate Bipolar Driver Board

[frank02189]

Hi All
I just got a Basic Stamp 2 and I think this is a great product and am having alot of fun with it.
I also have a bipolar driver board for stepper motors.
On the bipolar board their is a hookup
Enable,Step,Direction,Grd
Would I be able to use BS2 to send signals to the bipolar board?
If so what connections would have to be made on the BS2 Homework breadboard?
And is there PBasic code that would enable me to turn the stepper motor.
This is a low amp bipolar board rated 185 to 750ma.
Thanks

I agree that the BS2 is a nice little chip to play with.

I'm not sure about your stepper board, but it seems like you could run the motor with the pulsout command. I would have to read the stepper manual to verify, but you could probably control the direction by setting that pin to high.

If you send me the stepper driver manual, I can probably whip up some sample code.

Hi bradodarb
Theres a pdf at this site about the driver board

I have some crude pbasic code that works but I would be willing to test any code you would like to try.
thanks
