Title: Driver gone crazy
Post by: Naijin on February 02, 2015, 07:04:47 PM

Hi there, my cnc router was running fine until about two weeks ago, the Y axis started to miss steps and does not change directions sometimes, the other times it would work fine, I have swapped the motors and it seems to be with the one driver, the drivers are 2M542 Leadshine drivers, I had them for about two years and never had any problems with them until now, is there anyone out there using the same drivers, and if they have similar problems or know of a way to fix it I would be more than happy to hear from you, or anyone else who may have some suggestions please feel free to jump in.

Regards
Nick

Electronic devices don't last forever... if you traced it to one bad driver then it probably needs to be replaced.
