MNEMONIC FUNCTION TYPE
MS Microstep Resolution Motion Variable
DESCRIPTION
The MS variable controls the microstep resolution of the MDrive Motion Control. There are 14 parameters that can be used with
this variable, 8 binary and 6 decimal. The table below illustrates the parameter settings and their associated resolutions for the 1.8°
stepping motor used with the MDrive Motion Control.
The MS parameters given in the table below are the only valid parameters that will be accepted by the MDrive.
USAGE DEFAULT
MS=<parameter> 256
