Arduino pins:
8 ------------------------ EN ( stepper motor driver enable , active low )
7 ----------------------- Z.DIR (Z -axis direction control )
6 ----------------------- Y.DIR (Y -axis direction control )
5 ----------------------- X.DIR (X -axis direction control )
4 ---------------------- Z.STEP (Z -axis stepper control )
3 ---------------------- Y.STEP (Y -axis stepper control )
2 ---------------------- X.STEP (X -axis stepper control )
/ / The following is a simple stepper motor control procedures,
# define EN 8 / / stepper motor enable , active low

Note: When inserting the A4988 module, must be careful not to insert opposite.
Stepper motor wiring as follows:
2A, 2B is a group (red, green), 1A, 1B is other group (blue, yellow), if want to change direction, can be change the position of one group , for example 2A, 2B mutually exchanged.
