Interleaved steps vs Double coil steps!

Post by singhm29 »

Hey guys I decided to switch to using double step because of the amount of friction my stepper ends up facing I wanted more torque. Problem is I knew that 45 degrees was 12 steps
AF_Stepper motor(48, 2);
motor.step(12, BACKWARD, INTERLEAVE); but now I cant remember how I got those values and I want to use double stepping instead...anyone know the quick translation??

If 48 steps is 360 degrees, then 6 should be 45. It's easy enough to verify, so try it.
