      so have x and y wired up on my large format printer im building.
      when i click to move x 100 mm y moves also…
      hmmm

      when i click y to move 100 mm x moves also

      they are of course wired seperately..all go in to there respective ports on the wifi board etc.

      EDIT: ok weird…z is not hooked up and if i click z on the screen x and y move also

      any ideas would be a appreciated

        It sounds to me that you are using a config.g file that is meant for a delta printer. Use https://configurator.reprapfirmware.org/ to generate new config.g and homing files.

            mmmk..
            so i have a diff kinda build.
            im using 4 motors
            18x18 square.

            i have is kinda set up as an xy i guess..but not really 😛
            i have one motor on x…one motor on y.... 2 motors on zed
            2 motors on z because it will be lifting an 18 inch bed
            my question is how do i hook the two z motors up to the duet wifi

            i did a new config file on reprap and did the cartisean.
            now the axis are working properly on ax and y
            moving individually
            on to drilling holes in my 20x20 bed...this should be fun
