What is your velocity and accel set to? Try lowering the speed.
I recently got 3 of this driver board everything works great except that when I try to jog or move a long distance the stepper motor moves at the beginning and then stops and when is finishing it starts moving again. I dont know how to fix that I want the motor to move for the whole time I press the arrows keys here is a spec sheet of the drivers

Perhaps you can write down what you plan to do. Then we can tell you if you're on the right track.
I just want to know what is the correct way to wire the breakout board to my driver boards but also I dont know if I have all the info because in the manual of the board I dont see the input signals pins and a few extra stuff that other boards use on mach 3
All you need are step and dir. The enable pin is needed on some boards. The limits are useful, but not absolutely necessary to get the motors moving.
So all I need to do is wire the driver board to the step and direction, but what I dont know are the pins to configure in mach 3 because in the guide that show me how to set it, it does not say what are the input pins. Also thanks alot for your support I really appreciate it.
Mach is completely configurable. Look under Config---Ports and pins.
Ok so I got a new board but apparently my x axis is not working is there anyway I can get it to work or if I did something wrong here is the guide I used. I am new to this cnc stuff and really need help and help will be appreciated thanks.
