Question about Duet2Maestro external drive module
-
@ansonyang said in Question about Duet2Maestro external drive module:
Hello, if I don’t use the onboard TMC2224, but use STEP and DIR on the board to connect 5 external drives, what should I do?
The maximum number of STEP and DIR signal pairs you can pick up is 2.
-
If this is the case with an external drive module, how do I set it up?
Sorry for my bad English, translation software used -
You will need to common the grounds too.
We've never tried using external drivers with the Duet Maestro, but if it works at all, I don't think it will need any setting up apart from the usual steps/mm with M92.

Excuse me
E2 and E3 external drive modules can work, but X_Y_Z_E0_E1 external drive modules cannot work.
Please help me -

what do you mean by that? you want to replace the internal drivers?
-
I want to replace the TMC2224 on the motherboard with other drive modules
-
you want to desolder the onboard drivers?
at that stage it might be easier to get a skr board and run the lpc port of rrf on it
-
@Veti I don't know, can you tell me?
-
-
@Veti Thank you my friend
-
-
why would you want to use a drv8825 instead of a tmc driver?
-
@Veti I want to use a big drive to drive a big motor, not just DRV8825
-
the duet 3 can drive up to 6.3A
-
The price of DUET3 is beyond my ability.
I like DUET2MAESTRO very much, but TMC2224 is not what I want, I want more flexible drive support -
it makes no sense to buy a maestro and replace the drivers.
one of these ports with the port makes more sense.
