      Will the Duet 3 Main Board 6HC allow use of bi-polar stepper motors? or stay with uni-polar? Will I need to install H bridges?

      Thanks,

      Timmy C

        @surrfman all duet boards that have stepper drivers on board support only bipolar stepper motors. Unipolar motors are not supported.
