CENTROID ACORN CNC CONTROL has been sold

I have a ACORN that has not been used that I don't need

ShawnM,
Centroid send me a replaced ACORN with it's serial number about 80 behind the one I had.
They did not send me a message on the problem with the ACORN I sent them - Wish they had.
I have been trying to get it ready but I really don't like the display on my computer display.
Hard to find out ...

I have been able to get it to start running by using the wiring diagram on the ACORN wiring drawing S14976 that's using the DB25.

cnckeith,

I cannot do this because the ACORN has been sent to Centroid and they have received it this afternoon.
It was sent there so they can check to see if there was any problem with the ACORN I received.

With the Acorn disconnected and the power on, the stepper motors do not move.

Hi Ken Rychlik,

I have used these drawings (S14976, S15207 and S15007) to see which way the system would be the best but I have never gotten it to run.
I contacted CENTROID earlier today regarding my problems. They asked me to send the ACORN back to them so they can check it out.
I sent it to them ...

Where on that drawing are the "enable Lines" that you have talked about???

This is the drawing I looked at to see where to connect "Enable Lines" as shown in my photo

Ken Rychlik - Here are responses to your bad things you have printed

1) The reason it still doesn't work, is because you still didn't listen.

I read all responses and the others have been helpful.

2) It looks like you have the enable lines wired to the header where the step and dir were ...

Here are the photos that are showing how I have used the DB25 and it still doesn't work.
