    CNC 3.0 Shield and NEMA 23 Motors with TB6600 Drivers how to wire

    I just got a Arduino UNO and CNC Shield 3.0. I am trying to connect the CNC Shield to the TB6600 drivers because I am running 425 oz motors. I have 4 motors total so I am wanting to clone an axis. I can not find any wiring diagram for this type of setup. I am a NOOB at Arduino. I was able to get GRBL flashed to the UNO and I am proud of that.

    I've been having a tough time with grbl in general. I started with the Arduino Due and a gShield to run g2core (based on grbl), but I could never get it to connect to three different computers running three different operating systems. I replaced the Due with an Uno and it connected immediately...on one machine. Still having trouble (but different trouble) on others. People talked me into going the grbl/Arduino route when I didn't want to deal with it, but now that I'm having trouble they are nowhere to be found.

    Anyway, I just wanted to comment to let you know that I understand the kind of frustration you're dealing with (people not responding when you are looking for help), and I hope that a comment will help encourage more activity on your post.

    Toshiba's IC is used in thousand of different boards, how anyone would know what particular board do you have? Wiring could be as simple as connecting STEP/DIR pins on UNO to corresponding terminals on driver board.
