Is there a way to use the AccelStepper library with the Portenta Machine Control board using the Arduino IDE? I can't seem to find a way to implement this. Thankyou!
Have you been able to solve this in the meantime? I'm facing the same challenge.
Best regards
Hey! Yeah I asked the same question on Github and got this answer
Have a great day!

Hi,
Thank you very much, this is exactly what I was looking for and it works perfectly. I would never have thought of addressing the PINS in this way. Have a nice weekend. Best regards
Another option is to use intelligent controllers with RS-485 or CAN interface. There is a new trend to use these compact NEMA17/controller combinations for 3D machines. The controllers are not much more expensive than the usual step/dir drivers and they offer also closed loop control.
