No stepper movement with new Jackpot board

I have not left yet, I won’t be gone long, and I can still reply but I will not be in the shop with the electronics hooked up and running in front of me.

You are doing it again. We are experts in this board, we designed and built it. Why do you want to suffer and do this by yourself. Why not just share the details and we can help. What are the two problems?

120 messages in, you made a breakthrough of some sort and didn’t share what the issue has been thus far…that isn’t fair. If someone else is in your shoes we will not know how to help them.

If you can’t tell I am dying to help you, I just feel like I am yelling over a wall making guesses and you are on the other side having all the fun and not telling us anything.

Thank you. Going to load it now.

You are changing from a known, and tested in UGS working config to another one??? Why would you do that?

y works
z works

x dead
a runs in same direction for both +/- moves.

used Chrome to load ESP32. it worked this morning.

used cncjs to move around.

cannot load in UGS so quit trying to

Did you change it to “FluidNC” as I showed in the previous screenshot? I will not help you in anything other than UGS or the built in sender at this point.

Will not load anymore on the ESP32. I had to replace the bare bones config file that was loaded from the chrome method.

Have had that set all this time.

This is ambiguous. The chrome tool loads both files and firmware. Did you erase and flash new 3.7.10 firmware or did you load MY config file, or both?

Com port correct and Baud rate?

Read the bottom first and the top after. That is how they were copied

absolutely correct port and baud

This is how mine connects.

That $SS you just showed is not working correctly.

How did you get the $SS?

You can not connect two devices to the Board at the same time. Either you use USB, or you use wifi, not both.

Also you should completely power down and reboot before switching controllers. Please go back to my working and confirmed config.yaml please.

Maybe use Bluetooth as well, just to be sure. :stuck_out_tongue:

That is a problem. If I don’t connect USB I never see Fluid NC on WIFI connection screen. When I connect to FLUIDNC it automatically disconnects from my WIFI.

The ESP connects directly to the device, not through your home Wifi. So that is expected.
