Hi, i have the setup from title and I can't get the motors to move. The motors are keeping position and if I force them they come back to position, so they have power
AXBBE has connections with UCCNC blue light on, limits+estop+probe working when I use them so it "talks" with the software.
But, the motors are dead, no movement at all, I wired them from schematics I check and double check but I cant get them to move, will put some pic with the wiring and setting maybe I'm missing something.

You should configure the step/dir ports and pins according to your drives wiring to the AXBB-E, so make sure you have those configured properly.

Well, that is the problem, i think I have done everything correctly. But I can't get to move them a single step.
This is the video that I followed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCCO_1m ... ppeRommens + the schematics of the motor https://bit.ly/3xnVjaH
I configured the step/dir from O9with 010 and so on in pairs to 016 and set up axis "A" as slave.

I did not configure the flip switches on the driver tho, to set any microstep value. And this according to the manual can lead to no motor movement

For now, it's default how they came from eBay. (only played with one driver switches but with no result)

Double/triple check the wiring on the driver for your motor phases and the encoder.

Yea did that, only conclusion is that I have a bad axbbe board on my hands..

Unusual.
What if you switch it to cathode pulse/direction (npn) instead of anode (pnp) ?.
Put outputs to driver negatives and 5v+ to positive, active low. Maybe try using enable too.
Worth a shot. I'm thinking +/- conflict somewhere between pulse set and encoder or driver could be getting disabled for some reason.
(or I'm full of crap).

Have you looked at diagnostics page and activated a sensor to see if the input state changes?. If not, it could be communication between pc and axbb-e.
Are you using a ethernet crossover cable if directly connected?.

Your drivers have a switch for 5v or 24v input. Is that set to match the input power?

Ok, how can I buy you some beer?
In the search for the "complicated", I forgot about the switches. Ty again everything works now.
Thank you @all for the answers https://youtu.be/g_rB4v75jqU?t=12

You're welcome, no beer necessary!

That's good info.
Added this to the growing list of things to know for future reference.
