SmoothStepper USB / SmoothStepper and laptop without ground....
« on: November 20, 2008, 10:43:32 PM »
Hi!
I just received my Smoothstepper and I would like to use it with my Toshiba M30 laptop and a 4 axis Xylotex "ready to use" driver box.
Since I am a Newbie and heard about all the dangers coming from ground loops, power spikes etc. I was wondering if it could be a problem for the Smoothstepper that my laptop does not have a grounded power source. The AC plug is only a two pin...no ground line.
Thanks for your inputs!
