3HC vibrating motors [solved]
-
hi guys,
after uploading my config file and the mini 5+ and 3HC happely talking to each other (red flashing light at the same frequency) , i decided to home all axis but all my motors on the 3HC where only vibrating. even after changing the M906 current command to 2 amp still the same result. all commands where being send to the 3HC and i even got the correct status back of all my endstops (they are on the 3HC board)
after i put the 3HC in manual firmware update (can adress 0) did the drivers set the current right. Now i might be wrong that can adress 0 is used for firmware (saw that somewhere in the documentation) but i believe the 3HC should always see if there is a new firmware available right? and config files should always be written to the expansion board (or that the master is saying what the expansion board needs to do)
so my question is did i mis something in the documentation? and if i upload a new config file do i need to set the expansion board to adres 0 to accept the new config file?
still it wasnt that big of a deal and easy to figure out by just doing stuff.

I'm guessing that the 3HC didn't have matching firmware to the mainboard and it needed to be manually updated with M997 B1.

think so to but i thought that if i put it here that if other people having the same trouble they can use this post as some help.
because of the mainboard and the expension board where blinking at the same rate it was giving me a false positive that everything was already okay.
