Hi,

Does anyone know what the motor speed unit is on the AccelStepper library? I have included a snippet of my code below for reference. I assume it isn't RPM, but I am unsure what else it could be.

int wheelSpeed = 1500;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  LeftFrontWheel.setMaxSpeed(2000);
  LeftBackWheel.setMaxSpeed(2000);
  RightFrontWheel.setMaxSpeed(2000);
  RightBackWheel.setMaxSpeed(2000);
}

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

It is steps/second. In that code your motors will accelerate to 2000 steps per second, max.

Brilliant, thanks for the help!
