      Is it possible to command my X and Y motors to run continuously until I make them stop? I am using them on a conveyor system and currently I am just inputting a REALLY REALLY big number so they run for 2 hours. Is there a "set it and forget it" command?

        Unfortunately, no. You'd either have to use the work around you're currently using, or switch to a different type of motor that would function in an on/off fashion.
