PoKeys / Pokeys57CNC Driver Connection
« on: October 30, 2016, 03:05:10 PM »
Hi all

I'm trying to get my steppers running

This is what I did
I have a Pokeys57CNC board
steppers with 4 wires
DM542A drivers from Longsmotor


I can see my Pokeys board in Mach3.
But the steppers are not running yet.
I think I did something wrong with the wiring from pokeys to driver


Pul + (+5V) to the Pokeys 5V motor connector
Pul - to STEP pin on the Pokeys motor connector
Dir + (+5V) to the Pokeys 5V motor connector
Dir - to DIR pin on Pokeys motor connector

I didn't connect the ENBL pins

General Mach Discussion / Which Control/Breakout Board
« on: July 04, 2016, 03:18:57 PM »
Hi

I'm currently busy building my new CNC machine.
And I'm looking for a control/breakout board that works with Mach3.

I use 3 axis (2 steppers on Y, 1 driver on X, 1 driver on Z)

I want to use a home switches on all axis, e-stop and a probe.
Documentation/support from the manufacturer would be nice.

USB or LPT is fine.

Which board satisfies my needs?

I'm not into the Chinese breakout boards. Very bad experience with Chinese stuff.

I'm located in Europe. So please no USA suppliers/manufactures of control boards :)

General Mach Discussion / Steppermotors don't run smooth
« on: January 27, 2014, 11:45:14 AM »
Hi

I'm trying to configure Mach3 (demo) with my stepper motors

Setup:
4x Nema23 (4,2a)
4x DQ542MA
Wantai motor DB25 Breakout board

I connected it with my PC and I can get the motors runnings. The problem is: they don't run smooth, make allot of noise, and vibrate.
I configured the driver for 2000 steps. And also configured it in the Motor Tuning and Setup configuration.

I connected everything like this (the wiring diagram comes from wantai motors):
