yes, the usb stepper controller. the printer port is taken up by imaging softare with my modded toucam.

i can get 1/2 steps and full steps but no microstepping ( they may look into this down the track ) as i can not program the voltage delivered to the stators.

i am writing a visual basic program in .net called "smart scope" that will do as many things that i can pile into the program.
1. drive the alt/az or ra/dec, depending on setup chosen.
2. track via the program in alt/az or ra depending on setup
3. image track as well based on feedback from the image on the toucam, adjust to suit for tracking and field rotation when in alt/az mode.
