this all depends if you have connected the EN - ( enable - ) of the stepper drives , all the + pins go to 5v step - = pul & dir - = direction
if you have it's probable that you have this inverted or requires inverting , for testing just leave this unconnected until you have everything running beware some Bobs also require an enable input , although at first glance this particular board looks straightforward On 26 March 2016 at 13:13, Gene Heskett <[email protected]> wrote: > On Saturday 26 March 2016 02:49:55 jeshua wrote: > > > Greetings, > > > > I am attempting to assist a friend setting up a HY-JK02-M 5-axis > > Interface Board with Axis running HY-DIV168N-3.5A drivers. > > > > Controller Manual: > > http://www.tecnoflexo.com.br/site/fotos/download/17/17.pdf Driver > > Manual: > > http://www.goodluckbuy.com/images/detailed_images2/file/76081%20HY-DIV > >168N-3_5A.pdf > > > > Actually, seems like the interface board is all properly configured, > > but we cannot get the motor to move.
