General Mach Discussion / Re: Axis Only Moves In One Direction
« on: February 09, 2011, 08:49:15 AM »
It might be a little until I can get pictures of the machine itself. But it is a Minitech Mini Mill 3 Pro. I found a sheet of the machine and drive specs, and it appears that they have a large range of micro stepping modes, so I'm thinking that maybe the axes are on different step modes. Could this potentially be the issue? If so, how do I go about checking/changing the micro-stepping modes? Here's a link to the machine specs.

Interestingly enough, it says that the stepper motors operate at 200 steps/rev in full step mode, but on the motors there is a sticker saying "0.9deg/step".
