From the original Synthetos forum (2011–2025)
I have tried to setup the grblsheild to be a little more peppy and I am not sure about settings for this I assume that the motors are affected by the following parameters:
$3=50
$4=500.00
$5=1000.00
$6=224
$7=25
$8=100
Could it also be that the trim pots are not set correctly?
Z is setup for microstepping and it seems faster than the x and y.
What parameters will increase the speed of movement and what are reasonable max values?
Also I am using NEMA 23 size motor running newest version of gbrl. I am using 24 volt supply and 2.7 amp per phase, 2 volts.. I have a larger bed so it moves slow, I am not missing steps, but seem to move slower than the NEMA 17 Shapeoko I have viewed on YouTube.. I have played with the parameters do I need to shut down and re apply power or do all parameters take affect immediately?
