Will the DO MORE software allow subroutines so you can use the same high speed outputs in different areas for speed and distance changes.?

DoMore does not currently offer Sub routines.
What type of high speed outputs are you needing?
What output module are you using?
The reason I ask, is that the DoMore processor runs much faster than the legacy DL processors, and when you take advantage of the Program/Task blocks, you can achieve some pretty fast outputs. I have one large app running on a DoMore, with over 41,000 bytes of the program memory used, and I still average a 3.0 millisecond scan time.

just use a task where you would normally use a subroutine

I want to run different speeds and different distance and directions with the same stepper. want it to be programmable (change distance) from a HMI numeric pad.

You will probably need to use a CTRIO2, which has its own processor. You do not need sub routines with it.

Thanks , I'll look into that.
