Hello

I have a question in regards of the stepper motor wiring.

On the drawing of the Duet3 board I can see that
A2 = Black
A1 = Green
B2 = Blue
B1 = Red

But If I take a look at the MOONS MS17HD4P data sheet The colors of the wires are different from the Duet, and on the Hemere extruder another set of colors.

Could I care less about the colors of the wires and just concentrate on the drawings?

An example.
A Moons stepper is catorised like this
1A
3C
4B
6D

Would it then be
Duet3 = Moons
A2 = 1A
A1 = 3C
B2 = 4B
B1 = 6D

I am in doubt and I hope that you can help

@heide said in Wiring:

A2 = 1A
A1 = 3C
B2 = 4B
B1 = 6D

thats correct. see this bit of the datasheet

1A and 3C are one pair and 4B and 6D are the other. On the duet boards, A1 and A2 are one pair and B1 and B2 are the other

Thanks for the fast reply

Okey, I will not be concerned about the colors then. To me they could all be black.
I will treat them as pairs.

Maybe you can answer one more question for me.

Connecting the Fans to PWM OUT 4, 5 and 6.
My fans are 2 pins. And in regards of the description I will have to connect them to

V_OUT_LC_1 pin (+ve) and the OUT_n_NEG pin (-ve).

But where is the OUT_n_NEG Pin. My thoughts is that it would be GND. Is this correct?

Then I have made it wrong. I am happy that it has not been powered on just yet. Thanks
