The timing minimums are
DIr Setup 5000 ns
Dir Hold 5000 ns
Step Pulse 2000 ns
Step Space 2000 ns
I would multiply these numbers by 1.5 to guarantee some margin
in the actual Stepconf setup

Thank you. That confirms I understand it at least a little. I really was questioning the Direction Hold.
Can I ask why the 1.5 multiplier for margin?
And can you tell me just for that first page of the Stepconf wizard, what in the ini and Hal files are affected? I have a setup already running with way more conservative values, and I don’t want to use the wizard because of it overwriting. What was going to do is make a test configuration and copy the changes.

Typically those settings are in the .ini file
The 1.5 margin is because those are _minimum_ settings
The 1.5 margin is because those are _minimum_ settings
