Hi,

Recently, I would like to try a project with multiple stepper motors. I am trying to connect the stepper motor as shown in the diagram attached. The stepper motor driver used is DRV8825 Stepper Motor Driver Carrier.

Motor A: [www.omc-stepperonline.com]
Motor B: [www.omc-stepperonline.com]
Motor C: [www.omc-stepperonline.com]

Will there be any problem with the connection? Any suggestion is welcomed.

Thank you.

Best Regards,
Qzai09

Enable need to be tied low, not left floating

With m0,m1 and m2 left disconnected, your running in full step mode, this is probably not desired

Make it simple

Put a GRBL board atop your arduino

[www.synthetos.com]

[www.ebay.com]

12v-30v motor voltage supported

Load GRBL on arduino and start executing g-codes
and spinning the motors
