Agreed. He needs to see what caused damage to the Acorn DIR output. Miswired or a short....That's why I suggested he check his wiring.
Acorn's are thoroughly tested before leaving Centroid. Most common cause of damage is a mistake or mishap....

thanks, i have that info from the report.zip
what i was asking for is screen shots from the clearpath software setup screen for each axis.
use the windows snipping tool. ,type 'snip" in the windows search to find it

consider using a google photo album for your project.
more info here.

Axis 1 = X
Axis 2 = Y
Axis 3 = Z

Axis 4 = could be rotary or could be a paired axis. what are you trying to accomplish? need machine info/photos!

common debug practice is to swap axis motor, swap cables, one at a time to isolate an issue.

does the motor and drive you moved to the 4th axis work?
