I found at the initial period per step, 35ms, that the ML motor is-stepped. I had to adjust this to 50~60ms, for period per step.

Backlash...sorry not at lappy atm but ~10 steps is about right...although, this is a guess I suppose I should actually use a dial test meter and measure this.....Meh...no!

Edit:
Should also say that +5V is routed out unused pins on the DB9 connector so you can hook up a temp sensor near the motor, if you want. Of course the temp signal is also routed thu the DB9 as well. But these are unused pins on the ML system so this will not interfere.
