Hi,

Tweakie thank you for your patience it worked.
just did my first Routing with the new Stepper, the result is ok just a "little" small, the proportions are correct.

here an example:

Display --> shows Tree standing up.
Mill (Looking from my position on the left) --> mills tree lying on it left.

Before my change from parallel to ESS it was.
Display --> shows Tree standing up.
Mill (Looking from my position on the left) --> mills tree standing up.

Hi Tweakie,

set the pins back to "45°" setting then added added G69 to the G21 G90 G91.1 G64 G40 line in the gcode, no correction to be seen?

Hi,

No G68 in the G code.
i just tried swapping motor output settings the  x & Y step pin & dir pin, this makes the mill do a 90° turn.

Hi,

got that sorted out, thanks for the help.
now the display shows the workpiece being milled correctly but on the table the mill does the work "turned" 45° to the left. where can i correct this?

Hi,

After changing from parallel to ESS, ESS is connected and running, two motors don't react and one (Y) only moves in one direction?

Thanks in advance for your help.
