    Default ESS - PMDX - AM82

    Hey is anyone out there running the Ess with PMDX 126 and Leadshine Am882 drives. I need help getting this set up to turn motors. I've tried for two weeks to get it to communicate step and dir signals with no luck. PMDX shows no faults and step light blinks when I run from mach3. Charge pump activated and estop assigned. Motor will turn from am882 pro tune pulser. I am thinking it is mach3 but not sure

    Please help if you have the background

    Ben

    Ye I believe everything on the Ess is set up fin I can communicate great with the PMDX board. I have been able to turn on ports and pins Ect. So I don't think that is the problem. I think it is the drive. I can send step signals to PMDX from Mach just fine.

    I have an an email out to steve at PMDX the other day , waiting for a reply

    So I still have no movement from Mach3 in motors. Tried different settings in Mach. Have movement fine with pro tune in motors. I am going to buy a gecko 213v and try that wired up to see if I can get motor movement from Mach. I have no clue what do do next. Get pulse steps fine from PMDX in the test mode, but still wont send pulse steps to Leadshine. Pulling my hair out!!!!!!!!!!!!
