Hi
Can someone confirm if this -http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331096588413
The cheap BOBs on ebay are 1) any good? 2) compatible with my 3 Gecko 201x - (http://www.geckodrive.com/g201x.html)
I assumed yes when buying one a few months ago after I was experiencing problems with my HG06 - (http://www.cnc4you.co.uk/Breakout-Board-and-PSU%27s/Breakout%20board%20CNC%20Stepper-Motor-5-Axis-Spindle-Relay-HG08)
fact is my Control box has issues where I have gone through several BOB and still not been able to use my CNC machine. In my previous design the BOB outputs where being blown so this time round I have decided to start again with a control box design as the previous was a bit of a Frankenstein.
So with this ebay BOB, I did wire up the system correctly to my knowledge and there was no movement from the steppers. there was some signal/noise going to them but they weren't moving at all.
I just want to make sure the board compatible.
Many thanks
