Hopefully the last update to my program for a while: I just finished version 7.25 of my indexer sketch, with the following changes:
The beep function requires the addition of a speaker or piezo buzzer to the system (wired to ground and pin 13). I added this because when I am using the indexer on my mill, I'm mostly not watching the LCD screen and the beep provides a nice confirmation that a rotation has completed.
Version 7.25 is available for download here:

- added backlash compensation (optional)
- added a beep function (optional)
- fixed a minor bug when making a full 360° rotation in one move
