Not really..

My biggest problem was the naming of the stepper model.

In 4.24, definition :

"#define AXIS1_DRIVER_MODEL OFF "
meant system would output just Pulse and Dir signals to external Stepper controller-driver without microstepping control.

In OnStepX, "OFF" means no output... and as spurious consequence, no connection to comp via ASCOM platform.

Once that was sorted wit help of OnStep developers, the rest was straightforward.
I also intend to test OnStepX with STM32 (Blue Pill.. very cheap, ~2$) . However this may not work because the flash memory may be too small..

But for 4.24, 128k is large enough.
