Well after more testing I believe I found the issue. I was able to isolate the problem to 1 wire bundle. I have the cable soldered in plug for...
Thanks Gary. I did some more testing and I believe the problem is my PiCNC. I disconnected all the motor, samr problem. I then switched the X and...
I finally got my machine going and tested las night, everything was working fine. Turned itnon this morning to test out and start calibrating....
@David the swarfer that is what I thought too. The screen resolution of Raspbian is perfect with my screen, but BCNC opens up to a much bigger...
@Troy Proffitt that is pretty much the same set up as mine. I did not think of using a tablet to run it. I remotely connect using remote desktop...
Thanks everyone for all the guidance. I am fairly new at building my own machine so I am careful when it comes to electronics as I don’t want to...
Thanks I did read this thread. I believe this is the solution I am looking for . I sent Kyo a message and hopefully he can confirm I should not...
Got a reply from the manufacturer and it went like that: The signal interface of our single axis stepper driver is DIR, STEP, EN,+5V. The +5V is...
It is definitely a steep learning curve....LOL. I find it challenging and it motivates me to learn new things. The Protoneer Hat is running an...
Just been doing some reading and not sure if that would apply to this situation. Will I also have to do some changes to GRBL in the CNC Hat? I...
Perfect. There is a 5v pin (No other wire soldered on it) on the PiCNC, I will solder a wire to that and send the signal to all 3 stepper. GST
Thanks Rob, I will be running 3 stepper, would it be a better idea to have a dedicated 5v power supply just for that, or the 5v from the HAT will...
Thanks Rick. I did check that page before. My question is more related to the TB6560 and the 5v pin. Thx GST
I am trying to figure this one out but cannot find any relevant info online. I bought the TB6560 from Sainsmart, see link: Single-Axis CNC...
Hi guys, I hope this is not a stupid question. I have installed Raspbian and BCNC successfully. I am running a RPI 3 with a 5" screen. I would...
Thanks Calvin, it confirms what I thought. I read on the wiki page they were supposed to be "NO" but not much more on the configuration. GST
Hey guys, almost ready to put my electronics together. I only have one problem right now. I am trying to figure out the limit switch configuration...
I am also very interested in this build. I am almost finished with my Plate maker and I could then jump right in making the motor mounts for it....
Thanks Frank. I will be ordering one this week. I just finished putting my C-Beam plate maker together. GST
Allright guys, bear with me here, I am very new to the CNC world, and especially building from scratch. I will be building a C-Beam plate maker,...
