Hi,
I just figured out that one of my drive boards in my Conqueror Design CNC2x box is faulty. Anybody got a spare for sale? The guy at CDE is in hospital and I have no idea when I can get a new one! Any step 1 drive board should do me
Many Thanks

Hi Dave
If no one has a driver to sell and its going to be a while before
CDE can supply a replacement
a photo and data sheet of the faulty board would help
to identify the stepper driver IC's used to see if its realistic to repair it with minimal tools
for example
should be easy
(through hole IC's are easy but surface mount IC's are more of a problem as you may not want to buy the required tools for a one off repair)
one possibly is to use some thing like a THB6064 stepper driver module
avoiding the problem tb6560 drivers !!!!!

Hi John,
I would use a TB6560 but the problem I have is that the Conqueror card supplies the stepper drivers with a shared direction signal. I have no idea how I can use just the part of the signal that I need for my drive without buying their stepper card interface. Any ideas?
Best Regards
David

Hi Dave
without photos and the data sheet for the Conqueror driver board
I can't tell
not sure of the shared direction signal ?
should that be shared enable ?
the only time two drivers have a shared direction signal I know of
is when two drivers are connected to one axis
(provided the breakout board can supply enough current )

Hi John,
I've not managed to get pictures yet! Work is crazy right now. From what the blurb on the Conqueror Design website says, the drivers are interconnected with a ribbon cable and the direction signal form all the drivers is passed through one wire using a timing sequence. So, my issue is if I use a TB6600 which I have kicking around, how do I get it just the part of the signal intended for that driver?

Hi Dave
just looked at Conqueror Design website
if this is what you have
going by the width of the ribbon cable that is daisy chained between the driver boards
I expect all the step and direction signals go to each driver board
the pictures resolution is not good enough to see but I expect
each board has links to select the correct signals for that axis
