Hi afn09556,

Pin 7 in gecko drive is not connected, I double checked and there are low ohms between red/white and yellow/green, Gecko's pin 10 is connected to c11's +5v and EN pin ( +5v next pin) is hard wired to 5v  power connection. Let me check 5 volts stepping voltage between pin 8 and 10 

Thanks Chip

General Mach Discussion / Mach3 + Geckos 201 + C11

Hi there,

Im trying to build a cnc router, mechanics are almost done, but electronics are the weak part of the project because of my complete lack of experience.
First of all im trying to control a single axis (X axis), power supply delivers 72v, the stepper wiring diagram as follows:

RED/-WHT = phase 1
YEL/-GRN =  phase 2

Communication with Arturo´s c11 is smooth, charge pump is fine, but when I send DIR and STEP signals, output leds flashes but theres no movement at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
