Problem with the motors, getting ENDSTOP
Posted: Wed Aug 31, 2016 6:16 am
I have Geetech Prusa i3 pro B. I've assembled the printer and run onto an issue with the motors not moving properly. The problem is that I get in repetier and on the LCD "endstop hit".
Here is what I get when I try to move the motors manually:
X axis- I can move it left, but I can't move it right. Getting echo:endstops hit: X:9.99. The motor is at the most left position. If I manually put it in the middle and try to move it, it moves left without problem but it doesn't move right. Getting the same endstop error.
Y axis- Same here, the Y axis goes forward without problem, but it won't go backwards. Also endstop error here.
Z axis- It will go up, but won't go down. Also here getting the same endstop error.
Have to mention that the motors are nowhere near the endstop switches. And even if they hit them, they can still move in that direction if I choose manually.
What I tried:
Resetting the board
Flashing new firmware
Playing with the options in repetier
Tried the prusa config settings for slicer/repetier
Doublechecked every connection to the main board, everything is good.
