Should the disable pin (11), be allowed to float or be pulled up to +V in? Grounding it will cause it to disable the output, but what does that mean as far as the relationship to the "active low" input signals and the common ground for the logic or signal ground (pin 12)?
The problem I'm having is that I have connected a new controller board, a Galil DMC-2142, and get good signal to the step and dir pins, but the motors don't move. I'm wondering if I have somehow triggered the disable? I have holding torque when powered up, and inputing movement from Mach3 causes square waves to show up on the step and direction pins but no movement occurs. What is going on?
