EZStruder synced with Z stepper

Post by brianmichalk »

Newbie here.
Just built my V3 and the extruder stepper seems to be getting the same commands as the Z stepper. Would this be an Arduino configuration problem? I thought I followed the instructions correctly.

You probably have it plugged into the wrong port on the RAMBO, remember there are 2 Z stepper connectors next to each other that get the same signals.

Thanks, you were correct. I moved it over to E0, and am now waiting on the bed to come up to temp. I did try the manual control in MarrterControl to move the filament, but the filament feeder didn't do anything. I'll see in a few minutes if the print job moves filament.

The extruder has a software safety lock. It will only run if the hot end is up to temp.
