Re: [Machinekit] Re: Example Gantry Configs
Well, I'm doing my happy dance.. My current issue is I didn't have my xenable signal tied into my enable, powerup and led on my cramps board... (Thanks for the hints but not the answer) Now I'm getting dangerous since I'm starting to think I almost know what I'm doing... I'm able to jog and do manual homing...Next step I need to get my switches wired up and working on the autohoming. I'm hoping I can get this ready for the Milwaukee makerfaire without pulling an all nighter or two Hoo hoo -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.

Check the ESTOP and machine-power signal chains on your hardware and make sure the stepper drivers are being enabled.
