    Is the LED for the PS suppose to light up?

    I see a green led inside the power supply that xylotex sells with their 3 axis set. Is this suppose to light up? Mine does not. How can I even tell the power supply is working?

    Thanks

    I think there's an LED on the Xylotex that should come on. That, and your motors should be locked up.

    My led is not lighting up. I'll have to look into it such as a fuse or something.

    I can't believe it... I had the wires to the V/Com swapped around. Thats what I get for doing it late at night! I fixed it and now the LED lights up on the power supply and in the controller board. But with Mach 3 I tried jogging and nothing moves. So I guess I have to go through the config more or something to get it to work. I thought I could atleast see the motors move.
