Board problems

Post by erniehatt » Tue Jan 12, 2016 2:39 pm

I just received a GT2560 board, and after connecting it all up, I find a few problems with it, mainly the motors. They are only working one way, sort of. I have run out of ideas, The printer was working fine with the Ramps 1.4 and arduino mega 2560, so I know the motors and drivers are ok. Maybe there are some software settings I need.

did you home the printer? If you didn't do that then all the axis will only go towards one way.

Thanks Mark, but not quite sure what you mean by homing the printer, I am pretty new to this..
