Jackpot Y1 not responding to Y+ command

Before we send it back do you want to try and pry off the header of the bad driver jackpot socket and see if the pins are funky?

They are kind of hard to get moving but once you do it comes on and off. I am wondering if that pins is just not making contact. I had one last week that did not enable, the pin missed the header socket.

No obvious solder blobs or anything on the bottom?

Pins all look good and the soldering looks good as well. Its nearly Midnight here so I will have to stop for the night. If you think of anything overnight let me know. It will be a real pain if i need to send this back from Scotland.

Oh crap

We can swap Y1 to the C port no problem. If you ever need a 6th driver we can deal with it then.

Solder blobs on the 4 little chips above the drivers is the only other thing I can think of.

I don’t have an issue using the C port if it can be re-configured. Not sure where I am looking for the solder blobs you mentioned.

We can set you up to reflash it as well, just in case.

The blob would be on these

I am going to be gone tomorrow so don’t think I am ignoring you please. I will check back in as soon as I can.

There are others around who will try to help as well with troubleshooting.

Thank you!

Thanks for the help. I just tried using a Windows Laptop with the Web GUI but got same result. I have had problems with MACs and NC controllers before.

Well, it looks like the next step to try and fix things for you will be to build you a configuration file that uses the C stepper location for the Y1 driver. I’ll make an attempt to do this for you, but am going to do this on the fly starting as soon as I send this reply.

I’ll start with the LowRider config since that’s what is shown in yourr $ss output above. You’ll need to put that configuration on your board and we can try again.

My next reply will have what we want to test with.

OK, we need to change your config.yaml file to be like the file shown below:
(Note the code box only shows the start, you’ll need to select all of that to cut/paste your config)

The change swaps the C driver in place of the Y driver for this config.

Edit to add : you’ll need to power off the jackpot, and move the Y1 TMC2209 stepper driver from the Y position to the C position on your board, and plug the Y1 motor in at the C stepper motor location.

One last note - I’d still like to see close up pictures of the ICs that Ryan identified above, and also of the solder work on the Y stepper driver headers on the back side of the board.

For some reason the C motor is set to 16 microsteps. It needs to be changed to 8.

Good catch, thank you.

Thanks everyone for the help. Just so you are aware there is a 6-8 hour time difference so I am not ignoring your responses. They just arrive during the night. I will make the changes you requested when I get back from work and let you know the outcome. I will also supply the requested photographs.

I have updated the yaml file and moved the driver and I now have all steppers moving in both + and - directions.

Thanks to everybody who helped.

I have a couple of questions now that we have made the change.

Does this mean I won’t be able to get any firmware upgrades as they are not expecting Y1 to now be at C?

I noticed the end stops run in the same order as the steppers . Do I need to move Y1 end stop into the spare slot next to the probe.

I would appreciate any feedback on the photographs requested. I can’t see anything but I’m new to this.

Hopefully I will have this all built over the weekend.

Firmware upgrades do not affect the config.yaml.

You can apply future firmware upgrades, and as long as you use this same config file, it will still work the same.

Thanks Mike, one less problem to deal with.
