When you say known good one how do you know it's good.? What's it been connected too.? . . . Must be straight thru not a serial printer cable.

I removed it from my last cnc machine, it was working then so I guess it shold now unless this board is a bit picky.
I have ordered a new breakout board to try that as well.

Thank you for all the help

Ok well your wiring looks fine and tuning etc is correct so clutching straws now.!!

Try re-installing Mach and it's driver It's not unknown for Mach to throw a wobbly and it only takes ten mins.
