Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Tom, Look on the Mach3 configuration forum for more details on wiring the 4 axis board and using Mach3 with it. Here is a link to the forum for that board http://forum.seemecnc.com/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=49&p=2392#p2392 . For using Mach3, on youtube there are 5 videos from the programmer outlining the ...

No idea what the stepping is... is that configured on the board by the jumpers? My jumper settings came from Steve's with Seemecnc. So you think it could be set to 1/16 micro step right now?

Great post and nice find, going to get some of these tonight.

Thanks for the info,

Below are my Motor Tuning Profiles. They turned out to be double of that of mhackney's configs. I also had to reverse the motor direction for the correct + and - direction.

Below is the link to the current wiring and jumpers for the 4 Axis board. I will also post my motor tuning configs. Mine are different than the original post.

Just got my headed bed today and really what a nice piece. Mounted mine on plexglass with computer mother board stand offs. Thank you so much for the order.

Thank you for the reply John.

It did end up being the Z height along with an uncalibrated A Axis, my flow was way to slow. Adding a pic of my first print. Just from this one print I see why heated beds are a must.

I would like to thank John and Steve for letting me know about the temp sensor from walmart. Looks my temps are correct now. I am having an issue with getting the abs to stick to the deck. Tried different things to make it stick, sanded the deck, blue tape and adjusted the temp a bit hotter to see ...

If you have the new 4 axis board here is a link to a wiring diagram I created for the new board http://forum.seemecnc.com/viewtopic.php ... 9&start=10

Adding some pics, my H-1 and a filament holder I found at Walmart. The filament holder really is a garment rack but works well for 14 dollars. The rack is adjustable and sturdy enough to hold a 2.2lbs abs roll, haven't tried anything heavier yet.

After fixing the issue with reversed motors all seems to be operating correctly. One question I have is about the goto Z button. Is there anyway when using this option for the A axis not to be zeroed? Each time I do this operation, after feeding some material through the extruder, it backs the ...

Hi all again, Things going well but ran into a couple issues. Via the manual, Y positive should be toward the front of the machine. Right now within mach3 my positive/negative are revised. When I jog any axis it is the opposite of that found within the manual. Is this normal? How do I revise this to ...

Anyone have a Motor Tuning profile for the Z axis? On the first page of this post are X, Y, and A but no Z.

Added 4 Axis Board wiring, Dip Switch and Jumper Settings Diagrams to the mach3 software configuration thread. http://forum.seemecnc.com/viewtopic.php ... 9&start=10 Need verification of Diagrams please.

4 Axis Board Dip switch and Jumper Settings Diagram. Settings were taken from photo found on this post by Seemecnc admin. Would it be alright to use solid core wire for the Jumpers? Looks like you used some kind of staple or solid core material. Edit - Diagrams Verified - Went ahead and used 22 ...

Created an updated Wire diagram for the 4 Axis board. Added jpg and pdf files. Wanted to add the visio file also but not allowed. Next will be the 4 axis Jumper and Dip switch settings. Edit Diagrams Verified.

And you should have a jumper from the thermostat board going into the COM (center lug) on the relay terminals, and then the NO terminal runs up to the other side of the heating resistors. Can you give me a visual example of this? Don't really understand the procedure. Took a look at the thermostat ...

Posted couple questions in the mach3 Software forum regarding the 4 axis board setup. If anyone has a chance to take a look that would be great. Here is a direct link http://forum.seemecnc.com/viewtopic.php ... 9&start=10

Thank you for any help,

Looking at the 4 Axis board the 12v and Ground terminals have 3 wires connected. Just to make sure I have the correct wires connected they are as follows: 12V Terminal 1 from power supply 2 from Thermostat Ground 1 from power supply 1 from Heat resistor (Hot end resistors) 1 Thermostat Pic included ...

Currently working on the jumpers settings for the 4 axis board. What did you use for the jumpers? Kinda looks like staples. Also wondering what the top jumper setting is, hard to see PIC attached.

Thanks for all your help,

Mtizle

Sounds great that is what I was also thinking.

Thank you for a repley,

Mtizle

I would like to thank SeemeCNC for such interesting product that is really fun to build. Currently I have all the hardware together and in the wiring stage of the device. Wondering if any one has used Cat5e wire on their step motors? I have some laying around and thinking of using it. Any ideas ...
