To kick things off for the new build, the BIG Changes were as follows:

I still feel 8 years of trouble free service from the G540 was pretty good but it was time to say good bye. I did double check all of my current settings and never did find a reason for the trouble. I tried cleaning it, drilling it and ultimately resoldering the connector on the G540. No mater what I tried I could not get it to work again. These cables were from When I removed them I found a single pin on a single connector on the G540 was melted and I could not plug the cable back in. I was cleaning my machine and disconnected all of my motor cables from the back of the G540. Reasons 1 and 2 above are mundane but reason 3 was interesting.

The first real build I did consisted of 4 G251 Gecko drivers and a parallel breakout board. It was 2008 and things were just getting started. It took me a long time in life to realize I should do it right the first time, but lets not be too tough on me.

Version 1 (G251 + parallel breakout board) I will take you through the three iterations I have undergone, but will focus the details on the final version. The electronics can seem pretty intimidatingly, I know they did for me. With that out of the way, lets not get too worked up. Be smart, unplug things when you work on them and follow industry best practices like your life depends on it, because it very well could. In this particular section, we are going to be covering some high current high voltage issues. I make mistakes, I do things that are dumb and sometimes I don’t even know it. More specifically, if you follow any of what I have done, realize you are following someone who is a hobbyist, just like you. If you are attempting to build a CNC you will need to accept responsibility for the outcome. If you are just joining us, take a look at part 1 and 2 at:ĭISCLAIMER: Lets start with what should be pretty obvious at this point.
