@alankilian @I have 5 closed loop stepper drivers for context. Can I connect all of the closed loops stepper drivers to the same 5V and Ground Terminal or would that break something?

I made a quick wiring diagram in paint.

@alankilian Thats what I thought but wasn't entirely sure. I'll let you know if it works, when I get back home.

@alankilian Is there a 12v connector on the board I can use?

@alankilian Which Pin connector should the GND, 5V/3.3V, & Power 12V/24V connect to on the Expansion board?

@phaedrux I have, no luck.

@alankilian @JoergS5 Does this mean you guys can help me? I have no idea as per which connector on the breadboard connects to which connector on the closed loop board.

@phaedrux I have seen that post and no I am not familiar with the wiring of the closed loop driver that's why I asked LOL. Do you know anyone who might be?

@phaedrux The Panel Due now works. Thanks. But how should I wire the stepper motor drivers from the breakout board?

Good Day everyone,

I am once again asking for your help.

I bought 5 of these closed loop drivers for the breakout board and do not want to screw up the wiring.

In addition, I have a 7" panel due that is connected over the ribbon cable as the guide suggests and I have added the ```

Here is a print out from the YAT terminal: FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet FIRMWARE_VERSION: 3.3beta1 ELECTRONICS: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later FIRMWARE_DATE: 2021-02-14 16:00:49<LF>ok<LF>

What should I do?

@fcwilt @Veti @droftarts The belts were pretty tight but apparently not tight enough. I tightened the y axis a little more and most of the y axis problems went away. However I cannot tighten the x axis it's basically impossible. I ordered a tension kit for it though. In addition here is the latest print with these changes.

@droftarts The benchy was in the center of the bed with the front of the boat facing x + (eg 400). All belts and pullys are tight.

@Veti It requires a decent amount of force to move.

@fcwilt Same results with any print.

@droftarts @fcwilt @Phaedrux Hello guys. I started a new thread due to a different problem. I'm noticing a lot of vibrations, small blobs in my prints. In addition this is something that had occurred before any of the recent changes to the printer. Regardless of speed changes or jerk control this occurs.

@fcwilt Thanks for your help. Question though for my z probe offset height is set to 2.250 but Everytime I start a print I have to lower the z axis to -0.15. do I increase the offset hight or decrease it?

Then I will work on the ultimate printer project which will take 1 year + to finish. I appreciate all the help that you all provide @fcwilt @droftarts @Thalios @Phaedrux @dc42. Will there be an expansion board in which I could plug in my own stepper driver? Curious about testing a closed loop system.

Once I'm done I will create a new thread for people in the future to look at for my printers configuration.
