STEPPERS MOVING FULL STEP INSTEAD OF 1/16 STEP

At school we are building a reprap mono with a melzi controller and are having a problem with the melzi.
All of the stepper motors are moving a full step instead of 1/16 step. It was my understanding that the melzi controller would move the steppers 1/16 step automaticaly and there is no jumper or setting on the board for this.
I have researched this on the internet and not been able to find an answer.

When we loaded the Marlin firmware , using arduino, we could not get it to load using Tools->Board->Melzi 1284P 16MHz.
We had to load it using Tools->Board->Gen7 with Atmega 1284P and 16MHZ.
Could this be our problem??

Any input would be greatly appreciated

Thank You in advance

a bunch of Stumped Students

Are the MS1 & MS2 pads on the Melzi at 0V or at +VDD?

Thank you for your quick reply

I am not sure if I am checking this correctly, so I attached a picture to help clarify.(Please see MS1b.jpg)

When I check across the two pads of MS1 I get a reading of 5 volts
When I check across the two pads of MS2 I get a reading of 5 volts
When I check across the two pads of MS3 I get a reading of 5 volts

I hope I am doing this correctly, please let me know if I am not

Have a look here and see if it helps...

You need to have solder blobs across all three jumpers for x16.

THANK YOU nophead , waitaki , and DaveX

That was exactly what we needed.
We soldered the three jumpers for each motor driver , and the X,Y,Z, and E steppers are moving as they should.
We have set the endstops and homed the machine.
In the next few days we will finish the commissioning.

Thank you again, YOU GUYS ARE GREAT
