FAQs
- Q: Is the G201 recommended for new designs?
A: No. The G201 is a legacy product; for new designs, a newer digital drive is typically preferred.
- Q: Can I add selectable step resolution to a G201?
A: Geckodrive documentation notes the G201 can be converted to a G210 by installing a step pulse multiplier board (G901).
