General Mach Discussion / Mach3 5 axis breakout board not driving motors
« on: October 25, 2016, 07:48:40 PM »
I have connected a Mach3 5 axis breakout board with all of the proper connections. I have Powered the breakout board with USB connection from computer and 24 volts from a power supply. I have connected my step and direction on pins 2 and 3 respectively. I have connected the motor to the driver with sequencing as directed. I have the 24 volt power supply hooked to the driver as required. I have checked the parallel port for proper volts and confirmed the pins. I have set the step and direction in Mach3 on the X axis to step and direction pins 2 and 3 respectively. I cannot get the motors to run!!! Any help would be appreciated.
