Why?
I have more and more uses for step motors in my projects, so I have decided
to write a library to control them. This saves maintenance time, and since
I dont have all the time I wish for my projects, saving time is a good thing. I also
allows me to develop new applications faster.
Source code
My source code is totally free, you can do anything you want with it, even use it in
commercial products.
libstepper0.1.tar.gz (2.7k)
Applications
I have not released any software that uses this library yet.
Hardware
This software library would not be very useful without having a stepper connected
to your parallel port. You must build an interface to driver the stepper. libstepper
is designed to work witrh my simple interface. You can find the shematics in the
Hardware > parport stepper driver
You can also adapt my code to work with your interface if you already built one.
