I'm fairly new to working with arduino and I'm using the stepper library for the first time. Originally I was controlling my steppers using the servo library and digitalwrite. I tried to make a code to turn the stepper 1 revolution clockwise, and then 1 revolution counterclockwise. My stepper motor has 200 steps, which I know because that's the number I used with the servo library. However, when using the stepper library, if I use 200, it only does a quarter turn, and does a full turn when I instead use 800 in my code.
Could anybody help me understand what is going on here?
Ha!, yes its pointless posting text as anything but text, and code without using code tags - please follow
the site conventions for this if you want to make it easy for people to help you.
Servo library is nothing to do with steppers, you seem confused.
800 steps per revolution means your stepper driver is likely in x4 microstep mode.
You haven't posted full details of your hardware (such as the stepper driver and motor), so please do so
to confirm this diagnosis. Not all steppers are 200 steps, I own a 400 step one for instance.
