Hi,
What are recommended settings regarding energy saving when I use the NEMA17 Stepper Motor 14:1 and NT Head (both from Black Forest Motion)? Default was a setting of 20% for each motor in the app profile for the Pine R controller. What can happen when I use the setting 100% for each motor to save the maximum of energy? I will use the BFM slider (60 cm) mainly for time lapse (horizontal and sometimes diagonal) and seldom for video slides. Is there any risk of visible problems when the job is done (especially when using it for time lapse)? During tests in my appartment I couldn't notice any problems (payload about 2 kg, slider horizontal or diagonal, NT Head horizontal). Does anyone have experience with these settings and the mentioned motors in the field?
Thanks in advance
René
