stepper motor instead of servo

[shiga]

Hi. please explain how to use a stepper motor instead of a servo, the idea is to select a tool by rotating the stepper motor in which the initial point is the first extruder (the limit switch for the initial position should work and the rest of the tools are the value that the motor will be instructed to)

Well if you have an endstop to define the start position you can use a normal G1 movement command to move the stepper to your desired position. You'd need to determine the steps per mm and distance required to attain your desired position.

Does that make sense?

@phaedrux yes, I understand this, how to assign an additional motor and a terminal block to it, what should I write config?
