Help needed; Clearpath, ESS, Mach4 configuration
I am building a new machine and have bought Clearpath servo motors, an ESS controller, MB3 breakout board, and using Mach4. I can't get the motors to move no matter what I try for configuration and wiring. I found a diagram on here showing what I thought to be correct but still no joy.
Has anyone built something using this combination of hardware/software that could help me figure out what I am doing wrong? I am now just trying to get the motors hooked up for testing but have failed miserably. Any wire diagrams and Mach4 settings would be a huge help if you have gotten them to work.

Re: Help needed
These are the ones with the drivers built in and auto-tuning software? I was thinking of getting some myself; their site makes it sound like they should be a breeze to set up: https://teknic.com/products/clearpat...-servo-motors/ Have you tried asking them for tech support?
