DUET ETHERNET AND ESS smoothstepper

[collyble]

I would like to build a 3d printer using servo motors running off the ESS smoothstepper and the Duet 3D ethernet running off the ESS smoothstepper too (say on port two or three)
I need to know if the duet can run off the ESS (warp 9 smooth stepper)

Hi,

I don't really understand what your'e trying to achieve..

could you elaborate?

Best,

Ian

The Duet and the smoothstepper are both motion control boards (the Duet provides other functions too), so you need to use one or the other, not both. The Duet can drive servo motors (through a level shifter if needed) if they have step and direction inputs.
