New user, please forgive any ignorance. I have two motors running the y axis of my machine. I recently had an issue after I used the option to keep the x and y axis motors powered at all times. When I incremented the y axis position, the left most y axis motor moved, but the right most y axis motor did not move. This caused the x axis beam form an angle at the left most intersection of my rails at an angle less than 90 degrees. Thankfully nothing was warped.
Some info:
x axis motor is motor1
y axis left is motor3
y axis right is motor2
z axis is motor 4I am sure that I have setup something wrong, please help me diagnose if you have a minute.

November 4, 2016 at 9:47 pm #10017cmcgrath5035ModeratorThe parameter sets are not the same when poste d to the forum and then to dropbox.
One clear difference is microsteps = 4 vs microsteps = 8.
Which parameter set applies to your issue?WHat you describe would imply that one motor was in fact not working properly.
Can you disable one Y motor, then the other, to see if one motor is just not working?
Disabling would release the holding flux causing movement to ‘rack’ the axisWhat you describe, y axis racking, seems to imply one Y motor is stuck holding position while the other is moving. Could be wiring, could be defective hardwre, no likely firmware (known to work OK by others)
