150:1 and 240:1 ratio is 150x240= 36,000:1 should be smooth enough.

that looks like a 4 wire unipolar stepper, so you need to use 1 1/2 of the three controller ports. I was just talking to the manufacturer not two days ago re this. I will ask him exactly how you program the software to pulse it.

i am just digging up my notes and calcs on this................
