Looks great.
Will the details of the hardware and software be available or is this a proprietary item?
Hi arvidj,
Thank you.
Details to come (hardware and software). I'm working on the diagram, and pictures.

Looking really good and looking forward to the source sketch.
A little bit about the mechanics:

Tank you lakeside53. The code is at home. Please wait til tomorrow

Here is the software:
Indexer.zip
\Indexer\Indexer.ino.........The main code
\Libraries\Wlcd................Modified version of LCD4Bit
\Libraries\Wstepper..........My striped down version of AccelStepper
Wlcd is a modified version of LCD4Bit; includes code for activating cursor, create custom characters and digital read keys.
Wstepper is a rewrite, stripped down version of AccelStepper. Contains the minimum to control the stepper motor with acceleration and deceleration.
My thanks to the people who created the original libraries.

First thing when running the code, you must set the configuration.
Steps/Rev: 200.........Stepper motor, number of steps per revolution
MicroStep: 8............Stepper controller, number of micro steps
Reductn: 72.............Total gear train reduction
MxVl(°/M): 1200........Maximum velocity in degrees per minute
Acc(°/s²): 20...........Acceleration in degrees per second per second
Bcklsh(°): 0..............Backlash compensation in degrees

Thanks. I'll try to build it in the next couple of days. It looks straight forward but it always does when someone else does all the hard work!
Are you using WINAVR? What version?
Thanks very much for the code and the hardware layout.
A quick look at the code suggests it is well done and well commented.
I have a Nano and an LCD lying around and will give it a try. I don't have a Stepper Driver handy but can at least put the LCD and keypad thru its paces.
Thank you arvidj and lakeside53 for your comments

Don't forget in the first run to go thru the config screens. Use the left/right keys to select digit and the up/down to increase/decrease values.
lakeside53 - No I don't use WINAVR.
