Hi,
Simple solution in the end, new V3 860T drivers have a 5/24v switch, default 24v go figure )
Been there, done that. I had a battle the first time I set up my Delta servos. The Step and Direction inputs are differential. I wired it up
but misinterpreted the direction of the photodiode in the optocoupler input of the drive. Turns out I had to swap the two wires....thereafter
no trouble. I'm surprised you didn't hear me swearing and shouting, after all I'm only 14000 kms away, and I was really shouting loud!!
I got another servo about a fortnight ago for my fourth axis. It took about an hour to solder up the input plug to the cable to the breakout board,
was able to recycle previous settings to program the drive courtesy of the setup and tuning software, plugged the servo in and it worked perfectly
right from the get go. So you do learn from experience....even if that experience is hard fought.
