Need help with Adafruit Stepper Pi Hat settings.

I'm trying to build a printer using NanoDLP, and I used the Adafruit Pi Hat for the Z-axis stepper. (https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-dc- … per-motors)
It moves the stepper using their python libraries, but I don't know what settings to use in NanoDLP to get it running.
I set it as I2C control, but I don't know what else I need to set/change to make it work.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Raukk,

I have not first hard experience with these drivers, you probably need to send some binary data according to their datasheet. Go through their library source code.

Re: Need help with Adafruit Stepper Pi Hat settings.

Is it possible to have the z-axis move commands to just call a python script? I.e. to move stepper call script and pass variables for number of steps, step speed,i2C address?
