Accessing stepper signal from Rambo board

Hi,

Is there a way to neatly access the Step/Direction/Enable signal from the rambo board ? some kind of connector ?

I am planning to use Mechaduino on my prusa mk2

I hope it is not soldering some point to point connection to the SMD components.

They are apparently "drop in compatible" so you won't need to worry about the generated signals.

Unfortunately,Rambo board does not have access connector link to Dir and Step pins of the arduino. Hence, for anyone to use the mechaduino, he/she must do a point to point solder to access the signals.

I'm looking to do the same ...

The schematic of the rambo are available, we will need to do some precision soldering job ...
