TB6560 3-axis driver from ebay
Hello,
I have bought this controller from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=260509188593
And I'm not sure if it is working properly.
I'm supplying it with 20V DC , and I'm using some 4-wire stepper motor from old printers.
When I connect stepper to driver(i'm supplying it with 20V), and to PC's LPT port , suddenly there is high current draw( about 2A), but steppers are not spinning!
When I disconnect cable from LPT port, current draw disappears and it is about 30mA, which is good because steppers are not spinning.
Am I doing something wrong?
I'm newbie in this, so please be gentle :D
Thanks!
Mach3 has its own LPT driver
Hi there...
Mach3 uses its own "special" LPT driver, as the windows one was not stable enough to handle higher rpms. Perhaps reinstalling Mach3 (including the driver) might be useful.
Make sure you REBOOT:
* After uninstalling Mach+Driver
* after reinstalling Mach+Driver
...unless you like BSOD
Good luck...
