        They're on the expansion header: https://duet3d.com/wiki/Using_external_drivers

          What stepper motors and drivers are you planning on using?

            i cannot find the the three wires step,enable,dir for x and y and z because they are implemented inside the kit

            plz feedback with all about that and the wiring

              Hi if you are using A4982 drivers you are better off using the onboard drivers on the DuetWifi, they are rated to a higher current than the A4982s (although still only 2A not 3.5A).

              For reference if you want to connect external drivers then see this documentation that was already linked:

                  Use the E2, E3 and E4 step/dir/enable pins on the expansion connector, then use the M584 command in config.g to map the X, Y and Z axes to those driver channels.
