Thanks all, I've tried checked the end stops status and also ran the end stops open and closed. I tried the test sketch in the wiki. as follows: #define X_STEP_PIN 54 #define X_DIR_PIN 55 #define X_ENABLE_PIN 38 #define X_MIN_PIN 3 #define X_MAX_PIN 2 #define Y_STEP_PIN 60 #define Y_DIR_PIN 61 #define Y_ENABLE_PIN 56 #define Y_MIby Mdmoore00 - RAMPS Electronics
Thanks for the response, when i plug in the x, y, or extruder into the z pins i still get no movenent. When i try the z steppers in any other possition they move fine. when I move the stepper drivers around they work in any position but the Z axis... I ordered another Mega, the thought is to rule out the mega. I should have another RAMPS coming soon, I just feel it is outside the likely hood of cby Mdmoore00 - RAMPS Electronics
Thanks SteveRoy, for the advice. Changeling the feed rate didn't help. I'm not getting chattering motors or anything, the motors are silent. If it is the RAMPS board then both boards would be not functional on the z axis. When installing the stepper driver did I screw something up? I installed it with the pot at the top.by Mdmoore00 - RAMPS Electronics
Greetings, I am assembling a prusa i3 and I have run into a problem. After a bad Ramps 1.4 board I have a shinny new sainsmart RAMPS 1.4 that I can get all systems functional except the z axis steppers. I feel it is something I'm missing. If I move the steppers to different axis they work, if I move the step drivers into the z axis it still doesn't work.what am I missing? I borrowed another RAMPSby Mdmoore00 - RAMPS Electronics
