Hi
relatively new to the forum, first post.
I bought a stepper motor driver "2MA860H", capable of micro-steps and all and have had no success
in running it.
A manual can be found by googling 2ma860h-manual(eng).pdf
It looks pretty straight forward, I have used other motor drivers before and have some electrical experience.
Using it with MACH 3.
The enable disable input works (stepper is blocking), Direction should not make any difference. I can measure
step pulses but the motor does not budge.
The funny thing is that the red (overload) LED is on as soon as I connect the motor (and it can be turned by hand - so there should not be any current) but it turns off when the motor is in hold and blocked (and amps are flowing).
I have a hard time to believe that this driver bock was defective out of the box, but so far I have not figured out what might be the issue.
Thanks for any help
