This is the development list for TinyG.  You will not get any help for the issues you are having on this list.  Please go to the synthetos forums and repost your issues.

Thanks,

Hi,

I am trying to add the TinyG with Shapeoko 2 and have been following the instructions; github.com/synthetos/TinyG/wiki/Connecting-TinyG

and github.com/synthetos/TinyG/wiki/TinyG-Shapeoko-Setup.

The blue and red lights are ON on the board and sending jogging commands via Coolterm green lights come on so the board seems to be working fine.

I am using Nema 17 and 23 Bipolar motors and have the wires connected as per instructions and set the motors to their axis but the motors are not winding after sending a jogging command.

adjusting the trimpots doesn't make any difference, the motors are able to move freely when pushed with the board ON so it seems they are simply not 

engaging with the board though I have checked that there is a 24 V supply and repeatedly checked that the wires are connected properly.

Thank You in advance for any advice
