Hello, New member here. I connected the power supply to CNC shield and CNC shield to computer with a USB cable. Downloaded Openbuilds control software however while the LEDs flash, the steppers don't revolve. Any idea?
Furthermore when connecting the console displays this info: [17:09:40] [ connect ] PORT INFO: Port is now open: COM3 - Attempting to detect Firmware [17:09:40] [ connect ] Checking for firmware on COM3 [17:09:40] [ connect ] Detecting Firmware: Method 1 (Autoreset) [17:09:41] [ ] Grbl 1.1g ['$' for help] [17:09:41] [ ] [MSG:'$H'|'$X' to unlock] [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $0=10 ;Step pulse time, microseconds [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $1=255 ;Step idle delay, milliseconds [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $2=0 ;Step pulse invert, mask [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $3=4 ;Step direction invert, mask [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $4=1 ;Invert step enable pin, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $5=0 ;Invert limit pins, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $6=0 ;Invert probe pin, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $10=1 ;Status report options, mask [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $11=0.020 ;Junction deviation, millimeters [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $12=0.002 ;Arc tolerance, millimeters [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $13=0 ;Report in inches, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $20=0 ;Soft limits enable, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $21=1 ;Hard limits enable, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $22=1 ;Homing cycle enable, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $23=3 ;Homing direction invert, mask [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $24=100.000 ;Homing locate feed rate, mm/min [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $25=1000.000 ;Homing search seek rate, mm/min [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $26=250 ;Homing switch debounce delay, milliseconds [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $27=5.000 ;Homing switch pull-off distance, millimeters [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $30=1000 ;Maximum spindle speed, RPM [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $31=0 ;Minimum spindle speed, RPM [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $32=0 ;Laser-mode enable, boolean [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $100=199.100 ;X-axis steps per millimeter [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $101=199.100 ;Y-axis steps per millimeter [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $102=199.100 ;Z-axis steps per millimeter [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $110=2500.000 ;X-axis maximum rate, mm/min [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $111=2500.000 ;Y-axis maximum rate, mm/min [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $112=2500.000 ;Z-axis maximum rate, mm/min [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $120=150.000 ;X-axis acceleration, mm/sec^2 [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $121=150.000 ;Y-axis acceleration, mm/sec^2 [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $122=150.000 ;Z-axis acceleration, mm/sec^2 [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $130=550.000 ;X-axis maximum travel, millimeters [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $131=770.000 ;Y-axis maximum travel, millimeters [17:09:41] [ $$ ] $132=100.000 ;Z-axis maximum travel, millimeters [17:09:41] [ $$ ] ok [17:09:41] [ $I ] [VER:1.1g.20181112:WORKBEE1010] [17:09:41] [ $I ] [OPT:V,15,128] [17:09:41] [ $I ] ok [17:09:44] [ connect ] Firmware Detected: grbl version 1.1g on COM3
Honestly, I'm not sure about the cnc sheild, but maybe it needs Step Enable Invert set to disabled. You can try going into the settings tab, change $4 to disabled, save and try to jog again. " $4 - Step enable invert, boolean By default, the stepper enable pin is high to disable and low to enable. If your setup needs the opposite, just invert the stepper enable pin by typing $4=1. Disable with $4=0. (May need a power cycle to load the change.)"
