Accelstepper + setEnablePin code

Projects Programming

Hello,

I'm using a mega with a quadstepper to drive 3 motors. Below is the code I'm attempting to use. My question is, where in the code to I include my setEnablePin commamnds?

Reference:
void AccelStepper::setEnablePin ( uint8_t enablePin = 0xff )
Sets the enable pin number for stepper drivers. 0xFF indicates unused (default). Otherwise, if a pin is set, the pin will be turned on when enableOutputs() is called and switched off when disableOutputs() is called.

Parameters:
[in] enablePin Arduino digital pin number for motor enable

Code:

#include <AccelStepper.h>

// Define some steppers and the pins the will use
AccelStepper stepper1(1, 2, 23);
AccelStepper stepper2(1, 4, 27);
AccelStepper stepper3(1, 5, 29);

void setup()
{
stepper1.setMaxSpeed(11000.0);
stepper1.setAcceleration(10000.0);
stepper1.moveTo(6000);
stepper1.enableOutputs();

stepper2.setMaxSpeed(11000.0);
stepper2.setAcceleration(10000.0);
stepper2.moveTo(6000);
stepper2.enableOutputs();

stepper3.setMaxSpeed(11000.0);
stepper3.setAcceleration(10000.0);
stepper3.moveTo(6000);
stepper3.enableOutputs();
}

void loop()
{
// Change direction at the limits
if (stepper1.distanceToGo() == 0)
stepper1.moveTo(-stepper1.currentPosition());
if (stepper2.distanceToGo() == 0)
stepper2.moveTo(-stepper2.currentPosition());
if (stepper3.distanceToGo() == 0)
stepper3.moveTo(-stepper3.currentPosition());
stepper1.run();
stepper2.run();
stepper3.run();
}

Thank you,
Brent

In setup(), if you actually need them.
