      Hello,

      I want to upgrade my Ender 5 Plus form a Creality 4.2.2 mainboard with a Duet2 Wifi mainboard.

      Unfortunately i can't find anything about the pinout of the stepper motor connectors on the Creality mainboard.

      Can i just unplug them from the Creality mainboard, and connect them straight away on the Duet2 Wifi mainboard?

      Thank you in Advance!

        @SoDamnInsane yes, they are AABB so are just plug and play

            @SoDamnInsane I'm very sorry, but I'm a little bit confused. Another user posted 4 years ago this picture from his Ender 5 Plus upgrade!.

            But when i do a continuous test on the cable, then the connector should be turned 180 degrees. If the schematic of the Nema 17 motor is correct? When i connect it the same way as in the 1st picture, then the first 2 pins from the left are Coil A, instead of coil B...

              @SoDamnInsane what you should have is 1 coil on the first 2 pins and another coil on the other 2 pins.
              Whether coil A or Coil B is on the left doesn't matter as that just sets the direction and can adjusted in firmware

                @jay_s_uk Ohhhh ok! Thank you very much. Due several circumstances i couldn't do anything with 3D Printers for 6 years. But i realized that I've forgotten a lot, to be honest. And now I'm so insecure and doubtful about everything. Thank you! 👍 😉
