Thanks Charles, much appreciated. Sorry for the newbie questions.
With machinekit on the de0-nano is there a pinout to stepper drivers? Say I get machinekit on the de0-nano running and correctly cabled, do I just install machinekit on an x86_64 pc, load my drawing and send it to the de0-nano over IP, are there instructions for all of this? Thanks again.
