SmoothStepper USB / Re: Migrating from parallel port to SS

« on: June 16, 2009, 08:56:52 PM »

what is the advantage of using smooth stepper instead of the c11 bob with the parallel connection?. the usb smooth stepper does not support backlash comp. and there are many issues loosing communication, some of which i have begin to experience.

Need help configuring Mach3, C11 breakout board and usb smooth stepper

I would have been glad to pay more for products with better less, elusive support...

All is connected and config. parameters for ports and pins seem to be done. however i cannot jog the motors? any idea why.

The DRO's do change but motors do not move.
lights on smooth stepper are on
lights "green" are on the keling stepping drives
should there be connections to the ena+ and ena- on the stepping control? no documents reference this

lights on C11 are on, should the output lights be on to enable the motors??

is there a setup document to show the parameters??
