No offence uncle_bob but are you sure you are right?
You do know that when the motor is rated at 2.5Amps its not magically going to suck 2.5Amps out of a 2Amp stepper driver. Or is it? Actually its what I'm trying to find out..
EDIT:Ah but that is what the adjustable pot on the driver is for, its for determining how much power it will give the motor. So it should be ok. Should be mmm ^ ^ Advice anyone?
EDIT: I just read on a cnc forum that it will be fine with a motor that has a higher rating than the stepper driver. [www.cnczone.com]
