Hi!

And a problem: I have installed the Waveshare Hat on my R-Pi 4, running SM 1.7.4. Followed the instruction on Github, to download and build the driver, and I can now find the Wavehat Motor HAT Focuser in Ekos, and connect to it. Everything looks good, so far. However, I can not find a setting for adjusting microstepping in Indi window - should there not be one?
The problem: the stepper motor does not move at all. WHen starting the indiserver via Ekos, there is a faint click in the motor. Some other very faint ticks, but nothing else. It becomes warm after a while so seemingly getting power.

I saw there were issues with gpio permissions before. Not sure though what I should check to understand that - as I understood it from far earlier in this thread, it was fixed.
So what can I do? What to check and change? (I am not a coder nor an electrical engineer, but farily good with a multimeter and a soldering iron).
