Thank you Gerrit!! Wish I had a spare mill to give you.
It's open source, know how to code?
I believe that's from the underlying grbl. Read the "negative coordinates" section of the grbl wiki FAQ. By the way, it looks like the grbl...
The other possibility is bCNC. Open source. Controls 3 axes. Might be easy to start from there.
I think you just need to try it and see. On the power supply point, you need to get the specs for the motor and size the PSU properly. Same thing...
GRBL Panel is the software. Look Here. I wish it ran on Linux because it would be great for my Raspberry PI that I use to drive my CNC machine....
You won't see anything in that view. I connected a Nano GRBL breakout board to my PC. It uses an Arduino Nano but it's work just the same as any...
What program are you using on your PC to talk to the xPro? I like GRBL Panel and bCNC but any of them should work. Look to see if they offer a...
A little late to this party. My first thought was the same as Gary's. ATX PSUs usually need a load. I think it's false economy using a PC power...
My thought too - tool change. Try the cycle start/resume button?
Not a Smoothie expert but I think you want to run common cathode - connect the stepper control signals (en, step, dir) to the equivalent +...
I looked about both of those boards and felt their current ratings are wishful thinking. If you look at the chip's data sheet, they use the...
The lead is 8 on the 8 mm screws - you used pitch. I'd guess both that and microsteps are off. Still the 712.3 vs 800 is troubling - some lead...
By gearing, I meant exactly that - starts/pitch. I'd work through the math myself rather than use a calculator just to understand it 100%. A...
It's possible you are getting missed steps though you should hear something that indicates the motors aren't running correctly.More likely it's...
It's an Arduino Mega Shield. Separating it from the Arduino is the issue. I suppose you never take anything apart? Even if it's not working...
I agree about RAMPS and GRBL. I've played with it a little but, iirc, the signals are a bit scattered. Since you are using external drivers, much...
That's the beauty of Jack Bresenham's insight. You don't anything other than addition/subtraction. The algorithm accumulates deviation (error) of...
OK, first things, make sure the board is plugged into the PC, verify the board has power and then press rescan. If the board is working, you will...
If that's the case you can also do a scan from GRBL-panel.
