Controlling movement over the SPI interface

Open Mark-FS opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

I understand from the link below that the TMC2130 in SPI mode can be run purely over the SPI bus with no need for any connections to the step and direction pins. Can I do this using this library?

SPI is only used for setting different parameters on the TMC2130, such as stall and current values. Step and Dir are still required for motion control. See page 5 of the datasheet
