Duet 3 mini5+ and Ender 3 Pro: "grinding" motors?
-
Installed my Duet 3 mini5+ board on my ender 3 pro this week. Followed the excellent guide, thanks Jason Znack!
I fired up and all was well...it seemed. When I homed everything, the stepper motors sounded like they were grinding. I used the web interface to move around a little, and they still made the noise? Almost like they had sand in them, that sort of noise? They did not make this sound with the OEM creality board or two other aftermarket boards I have had installed on the printer in the past. This is suggesting to me that its the duet board, my config.g or my wiring (I followed the guide and simple cut off the guides rather than recrimping).
Since I didnt see any smoke and they were still cool, I started a short 10 minute print. It printed overall pretty good, just the motors sounded like they were grinding away the entire time?
Any ideas? Thanks!
Below is my config.g file if that will help diagnose:

Awesome, thanks, that seemed to fix it. I will have to look up exactly what that did so I'm educated, but it worked!
