        <title>X axis moves double the distance</title>
        <description> My x axis moves double the distance I tell it to move, the y axis goes the correct amount. What am I doing wrong? I&#039;m assuming I messed up the config file so I&#039;ve attached it.

This is on my I3 Omega, (I3XL) which is a long version of an I3X

Anyone?</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ If anyone else in the future runs into this, there is one other potential cause of this to look at as well. I ran into the same thing happening on a formerly working printer. it turns out that one of the NEMA motor wires had actually broken (in my case it was the red wire on a Lulzbot NEMA 17 motor on,y Y axis) that caused the print bed to move twice the distance at twice normal speed, but only in the Y axis direction,]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ You were right James, I missed a jumper. <br />
<br />
Thanks!]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Good thought, I'll take a look at that when I get a chance in a couple hours. I thought I put all the jumpers in, but maybe one is faulty or I didn't seat it all the way. <br />
<br />
If that doesn't fix it, I'll swap the Y axis and the x axis and see if the problem moves to the y axis.<br />
<br />
It is exactly double though, I measured after telling it to go 1 cm, and it went 2.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ this line seems set correctly: at least x and y are set the same. verify with your printer design the step sizes.<br />
<br />
#define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT   {80,80,4000,600}  // 660 was 760 * 1.1 calibrate <br />
look at ramps board,<br />
<br />
Stepper Driver Boards<br />
Jumpers need to be installed under each stepper driver:<br />
 jumper   Yes/No  step size<br />
 1     2    3<br />
 no   no    no    full step<br />
 yes  no    no    half step<br />
 no   yes   no    1/4 step<br />
 yes  yes   no    1/8 step<br />
 yes  yes   yes   1/16 step<br />
For now the default is 1/16 micro stepping <br />

set x/ and y to same jumper positions, the jumpers are below the pololu stepper driver chip.]]></description>
