motor not moving

@droftarts i am sending G1 X200

@zecreton that motor does not look like it has brake.

Have you changed SW1 to SW4 and SW6 as I suggested? What voltage is the power supply you have connected to the driver?

After power on, send the following:
G92 X100
This sets the axis position. In DWC, check that the axis position for X is 100.
G1 X600 F2000
This should move the motor 500mm to X600, and will take 15 seconds (500mm / 2000mm/m = 1/4 minute = 15 seconds). Check in DWC that it reports the axis position at the end of the move as X600.
If this doesn’t work, check for any error messages in the console.

Please report what of the above works or doesn’t work, and the reported axis position after each step.

Does the red LED on the driver flash? If so, this signifies an error. See the driver manual to interpret the error code.

3.5 LED Status Lights
There are two LED lights. The GREEN one is the power indicator which should be always on in normal circumstance. The RED one is a alarm status indication light, which will be OFF while working normally but ON and flash some times in a 3-second period in the case of enabled alarm protections.

@droftarts yes i did change the switches, the power supply has a voltage of 24v

[zecreton]

@droftarts the reported axis position is correct, there is no error anywhere

[zecreton]

@droftarts but the motor doesn't move at all

[droftarts]

@zecreton that means that the 6XD is most likely sending the correct signal.

Please answer my other questions.

[zecreton]

@droftarts the reported axis position after the first step is 100, and after the second, 600, the reported speed is 33.33mm/s and it takes about 15 seconds

@zecreton These questions:

Have you changed SW1 to SW4 and SW6 as I suggested?
What voltage is the power supply you have connected to the driver?
Does the red LED on the driver flash? If so, this signifies an error. See the driver manual to interpret the error code.

[zecreton]

@droftarts yes i did change the switches, the power supply is a 24v and no the red led doesn't flash

[zecreton]

@droftarts you think it could be the motor? i have another motor i could try it with

[zecreton]

@droftarts where is the big black wire for the encoder supposed to be connected?

[droftarts]

@zecreton It says on this page, under the 'Encoder Extension Cable Connection' table: https://www.omc-stepperonline.com/ts-series-12-0-nm-1699-68oz-in-1-axis-closed-loop-stepper-cnc-kit-nema-34-motor-driver-1-cl86t-s120-v41

PLEASE NOTE: The thick black wire can be used for shielding, but it is not required, so you can leave it unconnected.

I really don't know why this isn't working for you. Do you have an oscilloscope, so you can check the output from the 6XD? Can you set the driver up with an Arduino to test it? There are tutorials around to do this quite simply, for example https://youtu.be/FggSRQqB_a4

@droftarts hey, i tested the mainboard and it works, but i hit the erase jumper and now the firmware is gone, and when i try to reinstall it with bossa, it says the file doesn't exist

[droftarts]

@zecreton what file doesn’t exist?

Use file “Duet3Firmware_MB6XD.bin” from https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/3.5.2 in Bossa.

Ian

[zecreton]

@droftarts yes i am selecting it and when i press write, that's when it says it

[Phaedrux]

Did your browser rename the file extension or something?

screen shot?

[zecreton]

@Phaedrux

[droftarts]

@zecreton Maybe Bossa can't cope with the é in Téléchargements. Try moving the .bin file to a folder without accents.

Also make sure to tick 'Erase all', 'Lock' and 'Boot to flash.

You can try the command line bossac as well.
