So Far so good,I have connected motors to drive boards, set mach ports and pins, mach is taking control of the motors everything seems OK until??
When I power up the control box for the boards the motors seem to be buzzing, if I go into motor tuning I can alter the speeds and velocities on all Axis
and if I press the up / down keys the motors spin as they should, forward or reverse even the slave axis is working
BUT
they seem very erratic and some times seem to stall or stop and just sit there sounding like they are spinning
They get rather warm so I have stopped playing and have spent time checking my settings etc all seem OK apart from the erratic running and stopping
The motors are not on the machine so no friction or binding they are just sat on the bench.
I have reset the motor drives back to full step rather than 1/4 step no change
Has anyone out there had this happen or can someone please guide me in the right direction
Soooo close yet so far away
