Hi,

 

I'm struggling to get a working OnStepX build for my Fysetc E4 board, the issue being that when I try to move the mount for some reasons the motors make some noise but don't move.

I had the system working previously, so the wiring is ok, but atm I don't have the time to try different configurations or firmware versions to find the issue... so is there someone that can share a binary blob for my board? Ideally with web server enabled, so that I can change RA and DEC vales to match my mount.

 

I have an eq3-2, gear ratio 130 and 65 with 3:1 pulleys on both axis.

 

Thanks

Andrea

Use Chad's binary OnstepX loader for Fysetc E4

 

https://graydigitala...Step-Web-Tools/

 

It contains the web server, and creates an OnstepX wifi hotspot for you to connect to and configure.

 

Motors making noise but you know they are wired correctly may mean your steps/sec is too high. Are you sure they are wired correctly? Compared to a A4988 driver stepstick which is ABBA wiring, Fysetc E4's are AABB wiring per stepper.
