GT2560 testing and no luck

Hi,could you tell me which version is your nema 17 stepper motors ?I think the driver board didn't have enough voltage to driver the motor,maybe you can increase it or replace with A4988 to have a try.

Hi,
What exactly are you having problems with? One motor? All the motors? Which axis? X? Y? Z? or the extruder? :?

Check the stepper motor forums and you'll find information about how to increase the current through the motors and therefore the power to each by adjusting the Vref on the driver board. the voltage should be about 0.8V for 1 Amp of drive current through the coils.

Play Bonny!

Soadyheid.
