Great! I'll give that a shot and run a few parts. Will report back on how it goes.

No brake enabled, but the z axis doesn't move when power is off.

It really is the computer is trying to step and it doesn't seem to respond to the pulses if they are even sent

okay I have the steppers working off the DB25 now, and all on 5v logic power, and its work. However the problem persists on the Z axis. I played around for a bit, and I can see it repeatably happen if I move the Z axis around, then Estop, give it a few moments, then try to move the Z axis, it misses...

Well I installed the DB25 connector, and moved the stepper Logic power over from 24v to 5v per the wiring diagram. I made the necessary adjustment to the external switch on the stepper drivers, and unfortunately no motion at all. So working to troubleshoot this.

I purchased a db25 breakout and will try that! I'll report back on how it goes. I've had great success with the large stepper on my z axis, but I'm still using the stock 10tpi acme lead screw. This is also powered with a separate power supply. I've limited the machine to very slow speeds, as my spin...

Hey team, so I have converted a Grizzly G0619 to CNC with an Acorn board and StepperOnline drivers. I have fine success, and have made a number of parts now. But I get into situations where I loose my Z position. My process: I zero the tool to the top of my stock to get and offset. Upon starting the...

Do you have any photos of your setup? Would love to see it!

How did you hookup the individual drives? Curious if you have photos of the box and layout! Thanks so much.

Any progress on the build? Looking at one of these myself, haven't found much info out there though.

I'm 100% positive that its a PNP NC sensor! There's my issue. Dek keeping the gate open because of this. New ones on the way!
