Configuring this for a first upload. I have the following for motor/ axis info:

Steps of motor per turn = 200



1.8 deg 200 steps/rev when full-stepping

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

18 tpi on Z rod

1/8 stepping


1133.85 steps per mm = 1133.85 * 1000 = 1133850 per meter
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

X and Y gears have 8 teeth

t5 belt

1/16 stepping

80 steps per mm = 80000 steps per meter


The per mm number was taken from Prusa's calculator site. I loaded these into the config.h and now I have this:

#define STEPS_PER_M_X 80000
#define STEPS_PER_M_Y 80000
#define STEPS_PER_M_Z 1133850

These numbers look ok?

Yep, that's what I have at 1/16th stepping. Still a good idea to check with a ruler when you get it moving.
