Hi all!
I'm a bit of a newbie, been printing for a while, then my board stopped working. So I replaced my Arduino 2560 + Ramps 1.4 Shield for this MKS, and of course I need to install Marlin on it. Now most of it is working fine, but one thing I have difficulty with: the old Ramps had 2 x 4 pins next to the Z-stepper-driver, because the z-movement uses 2 stepper motors. But this MKS board only has 1 x 4 pins for the z-stepper-motor. (see picture, circled in red) Those work fine, but I need another 1 x 4 pins that do exactly the same. Can I now in the firmware designate the other 4 pins (circled in blue) to copy the behaviour from the original z-stepper pins? If yes, please tell me how, although I'm not a programmer, I know the basics of coding, just not enough to figure it out myself.

Hope someone can help, and thanks!
