Hello
I want use Mema 8 bipolar stepper with A4988 driver on CNC Shield Board with Arduino Uno or Due micro controller
With Arduino Uno, my connection is:
- jumper reset and sleep together
- VDD to Arduino 3.3v or 5v
- GND to Arduino GND (GND near VDD)
- 1A and 1B to stepper coil 1 black/green wire
- 2A and 2B to stepper coil 2 red/blue wire
- VMOT to power source (9v battery + term)
- GRD to power source (9v battery - term)
I've checked 2 power adapters with 9 and 12 V
I've tried use it with CNC shield as well as with breadboard, which connection shown below, I don't know why, but motor does not moves
I'm using DC Jack for adapter to stepper, back pin connected to the center pin plus, front pin is ground according to adapter -C+, the third leg is not used, I do not even know its purpose, maybe I did something wrong way
Any advice, guide or example would be helpful
