Hi all,
As the title of the thread suggests, I'm having trouble getting the Z-Axis to move down. When I try to move the Z axis it will move up. This is a brand new board, and I've also upgraded the firmware to Marlin 1.1.9 as well (probably a mistake to do it at the same time lol).
I can't work out whether this is related to the board or Marlin. I have a good idea of what I'm doing - I built the machine last year and have upgraded it fairly regularly, but changing the RAMPS board and coming across this issue has stumped me.
It's not:
1. Z endstop issues. The sensor shows on M119 as being open and triggered correctly.
It may be:
1. The RAMPS board. I changed my Y-motor to the Z-axis output and it would only go in one direction also. (X and Y work fine by the way normally).
Has anyone else had similar issues?
P.S. I've ordered another 1.4 RAMPS as that was what I had previously, and also a 1.6 (because why not lol).
Cheers
Joe
