Thanks Cefiar, I'll keep that in mind. Were there any other contacts in Brissie?by Trendstate - Australia, Brisbane RepRap User Group
Hey nophead, aplavins - thanks for the feedback. I've thrown together every combination of wiring, so can rule that out (hopefull) Im using pronterface and Marlin firmware, would you have an idea how to adjust the speed or acceleration in these tools?by Trendstate - Controllers
Now I'm not sure if this is the place to post but please bear with me. So, Me and another have been working on a Prusa using RAMPS 1.3 for some time now. We got together all the parts we needed, and the mechanical side is all but done. However, when it comes to electronics, however, we are pretty newbie and we've been having a lot of trouble. First the electronics don't work, then the drivers bby Trendstate - Australia, Brisbane RepRap User Group
We are in the testing phase for the electronics before final assembly, and we've run into a problem. When we try to step our motors they don't spin, just sort of jitter. The only definate indication it is doing anything is the noise and the vibration. Not knowing enough about stepper motors, we were looking for ideas as to: How to diagnose the issue, What could cause this, Any possible fixes.by Trendstate - Controllers
Heya thanks for the reply. Does this mean that we have to calibrate the pololus? We're beginners to the electrical side, would you mind stepping us through the link provided? Thanksby Trendstate - Controllers
Heya, This is our first attempt at building a 3D printer, like many on this forum. We are putting together a Prusa Mendel using Gen 7 v1.2 board and pololu drivers. We are using ReplicatorG v0029_r2 - settings: machine type "Prusa Mendel", connection via FTDI/usb. We are currently testing the stepper motors and the pololu drivers - initially we were only getting a motor twitch (no rotation). Wby Trendstate - Controllers
