Re: Acorn board up in smoke and z axis no longer works
For anyone else who runs into this issue here is a link if you have a warranty https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_diy/centroid_warranty.html I presume if out of warranty you just buy the board and request transfer of link. Hoping that helps and hoping no more issues after it was all finally runnin...

Re: Acorn board up in smoke and z axis no longer works
I found the information on the centroid website and ended up buying another board and requested a license transfer to it. Hopefully that’s all that’s needed.

Re: Acorn board up in smoke and z axis no longer works
Looks like I’m 13 months since purchase despite being too busy to finish the build until a month ago. The reality of anything getting warrantied for electronics is usually never happening anyways so all I would like is someone to help transfer my digitizing bundle over to my pro board if possible an...

Acorn board up in smoke and z axis no longer works
After the last couple days running smoothly. During a digitizing routing on a more complex part I heard a sizzle and saw smoke :o coming from the cabinet. Immediately shut power down, opened the cabinet, examined everything, and I couldn’t see anything obvious that stood out. I turned the power back...

Re: Missed Steps Nema 24 439oz DM542T Router
Again it is looking great still. EMI is odd that the dro values didn’t change at all so I wasn’t getting any obvious signs where to look. The one thing I’d like to do now is figure out if intercon can peck or how to modify its g code. This would be good to rid the entanglements going on and save the...

Re: Missed Steps Nema 24 439oz DM542T Router
Well all that work the issue replicated. I did further diagnosing and it turned out to be EMI interference.. oddly I hadn’t seen it in my limites experience yet but I happens to be prepared and a large drawer full of clamp on magnets. Now going back I wonder if that wasn’t an issue I had last year o...

Re: Missed Steps Nema 24 439oz DM542T Router
Here is a fresh video of how it sounds before I try a board and software swap. I need to diagnose the isssue and this is the only way I can think of to narrow possibilities down by first ruling out centroid. The other option is that maybe my steppers suddenly lost their holding power and when I dril...

Re: Missed Steps Nema 24 439oz DM542T Router
I squared the boxes that were drilled and properly aligned so you can see where the issues began. I tried to rehome and start 3-4 in that mess. Sadly I could’ve manually machined it faster and better. I was hoping to not have to crank the bar half a day, haha

Guess it missed this lovely intercon array.
