Well, i got my machine up and running but i seam to be having a problem.
I am using a probotix 4 axis kit, 3 400 oz motors and 1 240 oz motor.
i hooked up all my boards to the break out board and everything seamed fine.
however, one axis started to glitch. i would try to job the z up and sometimes it would go up, sometimes down, sometimes nowhere.
now the board this motor was hooked to i connected to the board using the screw terminals, not the 10 pin connector since it would not reach.
now i hooked up up to another spot to the on the break out port using the ribbon cable, and it still glitched, so it was not a problem with the break out board or parellel cable.
i had a spare board and swapped it in, and it all worked fine for 24 hours, and then the problems started again. still the axis i had wires goin in and not the 10 pin.
what is goin on causing these ill try to get a new board under warrent, if not,can anyone recommend another board or 4 axis kit that wont break.
im saving up for geckos, but dont have the money, i just need basic motor boards for now
