SmartBOB controllers and dedicated accessories / Xylotex Stepper Box and Smartbob 422
« on: March 27, 2016, 01:07:25 AM »
Hello,
Has anyone tried to use a Smartbob 422 with Xylotex stepper drive box? When I try to connect the stepper motors they make a bad noise and run continuously. I noticed there is a PMDX-103 isolater board, is that necessary to interface the xylotex driver box from the Smartbob 422. I also noticed that there is no "com" reference pins on the Xylotex box only Step and Dir.
This is the Xylotex box that I have: 4AX_40V_425_DB

Also I am running Mach 4 with USB to the Smartbob422.
