5. Click in the Distance box and enter a d istance
for the step move. It is recommended to set a
value that will cause the motor to turn a short
distance, for example one revolution.
Note:
The distance depends on the scale set in
section 5.3.1. If you set a scale so that units could be expressed in revolutions (or other unit
of your choice), then those a re the units that will be used here. I f you did not set a scale, the
amount you enter will be in encoder quadrature counts.

for the move, in seconds. This should be a
short duration, for example 0.15 seconds.
