I made some changes   I turned on not only XY&Z  but turn on AB&C     and the motors started working right . I still have to have estop turned on   or i cant reset ,even with machine hooked up and on, But at least the axes are all working

even with the machine hooked up i had to turn on  . The ative low. Then On motor outputs  i reset number and also had to enable A B C . Now the macchine motors do what i want them to.   2nd question will be with Estop abled on active low . will I be able to set limits ?
