Help Mach3

This one?

Yes.
PC+ (5V+) To ALL pul+, Dir+ (&En+ if you use it) on the drives.
Pul- (pins 2,4,6,8 on board) to Pul- on drivers.
Dir- (pins 3,5,7,9 on board) to Dir- on drivers.
For En- I used p14.

Or the little white plugs. Mine are marked +5v, CLK, CK, EN. (CLK is pul, CK is dir).

Then used p16 for coolant and p17 for a relay NC position (had grief with the onboard)

Is all here:

To be honest. ANY board that has pulse, direction, enable, 5v+, 5v-, can run a stepper driver.

There's nothing wrong with TB6600 drivers. It's a reasonable no-frills driver.

It was the older TB6560's that often blew up, but that was because they had a lower max voltage, and people often drove them near that limit, so a fast deceleration was enough to over-voltage them and damage them.

Although I personally wouldn't run an all-in-one board.

BUT I have no power or movement of the steppers.

I thought I replied to your email, but I don't see it in my outbox.
If the motors are not locked up, then either they are wired wrong, or the drive is not working. DO they require an Enable signal?

Hello everyone I am a new user to MYCNCUK and I would like to wade in with a problem that I have so here goes........ " I have built my own control panel and every thing looks well, accept for I can't get my Mach3 software to hand shake with the Bluesky T AM9587 5 axis 100Kz motion controller, I have tried using 2 different USB motion drivers UB100 and RnR motion driver and both do not recognise the AM9587 brake out board by displaying ( not recognised plug in the cable and try again ) I assume that it means the USB cable which is connected so the USB drive is not for the brake out board ) dose any one know if there is a dedicated USB driver for AM9587 motion controller board.

Hi, am I right in thinking I wont have to change any settings in Mach3 if I use this set up??

Hi sorry I am still having problems, I have bought a stepper diver and wired it up I still have all lights and all functions on Mach3 screen set working but still NO power to steppers. If I turn the computer off the stepper locks .

You need to show how you have it wired . also you will need 12-24v and 5V connected to the bob

Hi, I have attched two pics I have used a four lead from driver to breakout board is this OK

Not very informative. Do you have it wired as per post #12?.
These boards do require a 12-24v supply added on the right hand side to run the spindle control AND the inputs. The 5v usb supplies the outputs only.
I see you don't have the larger supply yet so....

Is E-stop turned off in Mach3?.
Do you have power to the driver?.
Some drivers require the enable signal to be used.

Are the wires actually the same config on both board and driver?. Or did you not look and just plug it in?.

I need a close up of the driver connectionns showing the symbols/names, or written down. Pul+/- dir+/- en+/- etc.

Blurry pictures are as good as useless, and you need to give more specific info. If you can't take a good picture then at least draw a little diagram showing where each wire connects. Also, show the settings you have in Mach3, screenshots work best.
