I have tried the steps per unit form 200 to 2000 with nothing changing.

Will try changing direction and see what happens.

Having a problem getting the motors to move, Have watched the video trouble shooting several time and still can not get them to move.

 Using a desk top with Windows XP and Hobby CNC controller.

Did the printer test and it say’s excellent

Double check all the pin outs to make sure they are right.

When I look at the printer port numbers I have two that come up, One is 0378 and under that one is 0778

When I hit the jog button I hear some nose from the motors but they do not move.

Tried running the G code file Road Runner and the motors make different sounds like they are working but no not move.

Also need to note that I was running the router with Turbo CNC and it was working with it.

Thanks for any input.
