▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ notes ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

GRBL is definitely a project for later on, but definitely NEAR future! :D
I think you can also put the stepper to sleep so that it doesn't use power. Don't know how to do that yet though.

Thank you for the video. finally i found how to control the stepper and its shield through arduino ide. I saw the comments of those people who are asking for the code. JUST COPY PASTE IT FROM THE VIDEO ***! ITS NOT MORE THAN 20 LINES!

[mikusn]

You don’t need a relay. There’s an enable pin on each driver. Just disable it in the code when you don’t want it drawing power.

[deepstonecrypt]

is there any way i can controll 4 steppers simultaneously in different directions with this?
i really need help

[johnwheeler]

Hi, Great video. Do you know which pins I connect to on the shield when installing an external reset button? Thanks.

[sallerc]

You shouldn't plug in the stepper driver chips on the board without connecting a stepper to it. At least not the drv8825, but think it's the same with A4988.

Hey I'm using the cnc shield with arduino uno and it all seems to work well. But today there is some problem with the rotation of Y-axis, it only moves in one direction. As you have spend a lot time to study it also you may/may not have encountered with the same problem. But if you could help me through it will be grateful. Your Videos is awesome.

[felipeinfantinom]

Thanks for the video, but why aren't you using the arduino Stepper library?

[tariqzk]

Hi, I am using this shield to control XYZ but two motors for Z must be controlled with a button to preform one action. while the XY will be controlled with a joystick. the project is working for XY but how can I make it work for Z? (No libraries)

[First.Last.]

why you didnt build without CNC shield?

[kevinsantanamedina]

Nice video, Do you have the same code for the arduino nano with the shield?

[banzaiwhoop]

Amazing .. thanx for uploading it buddy .. i need to work on it for my future project so it was basic help :)

[VectorNodes]

This was pretty cool and I appreciate it but yours is the only code I can't seem to get to work with that shield lol. I hate GRBL simply for it's E-axis limitations so now I'm working on an interpreter that doesn't exclude an axis.

[srishtygardenresorts]

hey i have a stepper motor i have connected it to arduino uno r3 with a l298n driver
but when i catch the shaft the stepper motor stops rotating
i wonder then how do this stepper motor lift a good load
is all stepper motors is like this or my stepper has any problem
i am asking it because i am having a robotic arm project which requires to lift a load of 3 kg
please replay
thanks

ı put my drivers on it .when ı I measure the voltage value on enable pin with a multimeter.I see 5v.but ı did not coded for enable pins to get 5 v .however how to disable this "enable" pin?

[DPrintedEngineer]

how do i use multiple steppers at one?

[lg]

How can I control the engines that way using the race switches?
I already tried it in several ways and it does not work for me.
Help!!

[lg]

and using career switches as would the code?

[dixitthummar]

Can you provide me code to run sgepper with cnc

[javiers.]

Why you Just don´t copy or Link the the code?? :D Thanks anyway

[joeb]

I agree, the video is not clear enough to copy the code. Can someone please place the code in this comments section? it will save many peoples time trying to re-write it.
