I just finished assembling my black box 4x controller. I have 24vdc power supplied, I have the switch turned on, I have the nema 17 motors wired, I have limit switches wired. On the trouble shooting tab, I see the switches change state, but the motors do not turn, I see the numbers on the Openbuilds Control change, but the motors don't move. I;ve tried everything I can think of. Any help?

Hello Mary, I'm trying to get a new custom machine up and running. I bought a Blackbox control and i can now exercise all axis, all limit switches, and control the IOT power. I'm having trouble getting the system to run gcode and at this point I'm getting one or two answers a day which is VERY frustrating. Can someone pick up a phone, dial me at 610-710-9099 so we can move this along.
Hi there. Sorry to hear you are having trouble. the very best place for technical support is right here under the Forums General Talk. Please post your questions here and our technical team reviews all posts and will do their best to help out. You will also find many Blackbox veterans here that may jump in as well!
Hi Mary, i have 3d printer project, and i need someone for coding arduino and programming how to find them <3
Is all the lead screws thread patterns the same and if not how do I distinguish the pattern I want to order
Mary, I sent two messages in the conversations area. They both are the same message, the first one included Mark Carew and you, while the second only includes yourself. Would you be so kind as to look at this conversation and provide any information you can. Thanks
hello, Looking to buy a Lead 1010. I'm very new to CNC, but jumping in anyway.. I was looking at both the Lead 1010 and the WorkBee 1010. Pricing both, the Lead 1010 does not list the "Wiring" as an option? Is it include as part of the bundle? It is an option on the WorkBee. I want to make sure I have everything when it arrives... I cannot find any Phone numbers to talk to a sales person, so trying here.
In the Bundle Contents listed for the LEAD 1010, the wiring kit is INCLUDED. You are going to want to wait until this weekend to order though - Father's Day special coming up!
Wow! Guess i picked a good day to join! Thanks so much, looking forward to adding a new element to my retirement business!
Mary, I am planning on ordering materials for my build in the next day or so. Just noticed that all linear actuators in Store are listed as out of stock. I am checking to see if these will be back in stock soon? Mainly interested in Nema 23 Belt and Pinion actuator
Hello ! Do you have more informations about the wiring kit for the ACRO Systems ? What is it composed of ? Thank you ;) Fabrice.
Will there be another build competition for this year? I've started working on publishing a build for my Revify 3D printer, but I've technically started it in the last couple days.
Hi Mary, I just received an order from Openbuilds and was disappointed to find that the 45mm cap screws were m3's. I was planning on using them to mount my steppers but already have m5 threads cut. That's my bad, I didn't look carefully when I placed the order, just wondering if the cap screws are even available in m5?
Here is a link to the M5 related products http://openbuildspartstore.com/search.php?search_query=m5%20§ion=product
Greetings MaryD. Do you know of anyone I could contact in order to obtain an RMA number for a xPRO V3 Controller that is intermittent?

Name not yet revealed....oh the suspense! The controller has been through many rounds of upgrades and is now in the prototype phase. It is worth the wait!
Hey Mar, thanks for the encouragement. BTW I am a Jersey Girl myself, born in the north, grew up in the pine lands.

Hello MaryD, I have entered into the naming contest. In case I don't win I do have a question for you. I've looked around for a case like the Super Cool case and have been unsuccessful. Would you please recommend where I might find more information in this type of case construction. Perhaps even some dxf files to get me started designing and making my own case. Regards, Lee
Lee, we don't yet have a final design for the case but when we do, you'll find it here on OpenBuilds.
