Stepper control animation as example
JavaScript thank's to/from llizard & The Art of Animated ASCII Drawing!
A JavaScript example of halfstep control of 4 phase unipolar stepper motor
X motor Connected to the Lower 4bits of the parallel port (D0, D1, D2, D3).
Y motor Connected to the High 4bits of the parallel port (D4, D5, D6, D7).
halfstep output sequence for xmotor = 1, 3, 2, 6, 4, 12, 8, 9
fullstep sequence for xmotor = 1, 2, 4, 8
double coil fullstep sequence for xmotor = 3, 6, 12, 9
For Zmotor is the (parallel port adres + 2),output value XOR11
The parallel port adres &H378 Could also be &H278 or &H3BC (&H means HEXadecimal)
ULN2803 Example
Numbers are pin numbers on 36pins Centronics printer cable/parallel port
