This is often the issue. It's not so much the mechanical issues that stymie a guy but the electrical issues. At least for me. I finished wiring and adding electrical things and went for a test. I may have killed my semi expensive controls. Should I have had everything plugged in, computer, steppers spindle motor, e stop and, all the various necessary power supplies before turning on the power?
Well, I did not! It did not go up in smoke but neither did it do anything at all. Comments, did I KILL it ????
