I have a follow up question about integrating an encoder: How can I use an encoder to control the stepper position instead of the controller's internal logic? I'm using a ENC1000 to read a linear quadrature encoder. I have several positions along the travel where I activate functions unrelated to th...

Awesome, thanks!

I'm using a NEMA 23 stepper with the STC1003 controller. I want the stepper to stop when it hits a limit switch at the end of the course. Obviously, I could just deenable the controller to cut power to the stepper, but that seems likely to cause damage. Otherwise, I could set the velocity limit to 0...
