Config for 2 motors on x-axis (w/ Gecko g540)

[rogerer]

Hi

I have 4 motors, a Geckodrive G540 and running Emc2.

How do I get 2 of the motors running the x-axis simultaniously?

Can you wire the step/direction signals together for the dual-motor axis?

I have 2 motors on y axes.You can compare with screenshots on this site:

Not worse than that? Thanks!

I installed the version 2.3 and ran the same stepconf as described.

When running very low feeds, either one of the motors or both would not run at all. This came and went as I tested. Does anyone know why? I thought steppers only lost steps at high revs?

You can easily set axis A to step with axis x in stepconf wizard. I have done this.
