Hello,
I'm a complete noob in regards these types of projects but I find them very interesting.
Here are my goals:
-Move my gantry plate right and left from a distance that I can alter.
My setup from Driver to Arduino (per the instructions from OpenBuild)
- Pul+ to Pin 2
- Dir+ to Pin 5
- Pul- to GND
- Dir- to GND
I have grbl 1.1 setup on my Adruino. I can connect via USB to UGS or the free OpenBuilds software.
The issue:
X+ moves clockwise
X- moves clockwise
No matter what arrangement I try, the motor spins the same direction. Other threads say I'm not getting the necessary 5v from the Arduino to cause the motor to spin the other direction. I've tried every pin setup I could find on the internet but it doesn't work.
Is it some setting I'm overlooking in the code?
Is my Arduino bad?
Am I just f*cking stupid?
Or All of the Above?
All I want to accomplish is making this thing move back and forth.
