    The schematic and motorcode.h show the interface to the UNL driver board as D10 -IN4, D9-IN3 etc. The PCB is labeled the opposite: D10-IN1, D9-IN2 etc. Not sure what effect that has. On a different subject, I have been experimenting with substituting a 3mm x 3mm neodymium cylinder in the hole drilled in the carrier and a 49s analog Hall effect sensor glued inside the cover for the LED/photoresistor with some success.
