Setting	Description
Pin 1	The board pin connected to pin 1 on the stepper motor. All digital and analog pins are supported.
Pin 2	The board pin connected to pin 2 on the stepper motor. All digital and analog pins are supported.
Pin 3	The board pin connected to pin 3 on the stepper motor. All digital and analog pins are supported. This pin is not used with Easy Driver boards.
Pin 4	The board pin connected to pin 4 on the stepper motor. All digital and analog pins are supported. This pin is not used with Easy Driver boards.
Auto Zero Input - None	When checked, disables automatically setting the motor zero position based on a pin input.
Auto Zero Input - Pin	The board pin connected to a switch that, when closed, indicates the motor is at the zero position.
Name	The name for the stepper motor. Displayed in the output configuration dialog to identify the device when mapping the simulator output.
Select a preset	The preset for the type of driver connected to the motor.
Mode	The type of driver mode used.
Backlash value	The number of steps to apply to compensate for backlash in the stepper motor.
Disable stepper when at target position	When checked, turns off power to the stepper motor once it reaches the target position.

Setting	Description
Stepper	Selects the stepper motor to display the value on.
Display scale	The number of steps for the value from the simulator to complete a full revolution of the shaft. For example, a compass heading in degrees has 360 steps.
Compass Mode - Enabled	When checked, ensures the motor takes the shortest path to the new value when crossing the 0/360 degree boundary.
Full revolution	The number of steps required to make a 360-degree revolution of the shaft.
Max speed	The maximum number of steps per second to move the stepper motor.
Acceleration	The acceleration in steps per second, per second, to reach the Max speed.
Move Steps	The number of steps to move the motor when clicking the Move button when setting the stepper zero position.
Move	When clicked, moves the stepper motor by the number of steps specified by Move Steps.
Set Zero	When clicked, sets the zero position of the stepper motor to the current shaft position.
