General Mach Discussion / no motor movement - taig micromill
« on: March 13, 2007, 02:52:27 PM »
Hi all
Here's what I have:
Taig Micromill, a couple of years old, just upgraded to mach 3, xp computer, pentium III, 40 g hard drive, mostly empty
the motors are not responding to the keyboard jog.
Printer port is 0x378
The pinouts are set to
axis | step pin | dir pin | dir lowactive | step lowactive | step port | dir port
x 3 2 active low active low 1 1
y 5 4 active low active low 1 1
z 7 6 active low active low 1 1
Neither sherline mode or non works.
No motor response, except they twitch when I turn the computer on.
any suggestions?
Chris
