@jonathanbrent if it's a Duet 3 board then you could also look at M917.

@dc42 Thank you! Exactly what I needed

@dc42 Thanks! Got a converter and it's working through IO_0 on the board!

My first thoughts would be mechanical, but please update to 3.5.1 as there were some issues with skipped steps occasionally, but this doesn't sound applicable to me.

Can you share some more information if the firmware update doesn't help? config.g and a sample gcode of your moves. Maybe some more detail of the hardware? Is 1A current sufficient for the motors?

@dc42 yes that would work as well for the particular usecase of naming a file with a datetime that's a valid filename. Its less generalisable than being able to use just the date or just the time - but that's not necessarily an urgent requirement.

It depends on the overhead to implement various types of string handling.

Please update to 3.4.6
