Just a small update..

I managed to move the X axis !!!EUREKA!!!

The other axes do not respond..

I am about to build a laser XY plotter, so I should get a good understanding about PWM, limit switches and how to compile code for a specific machine geometry as mine is fully custom.

Is there a tutorial on adding a new machine configuraton?

Hello
I found the ramps fd pinout settings inside a marlin firmware from Bob at github

Here is the relevant part from pins.h:

But I can’t make much sense of it comparing with the shield pin out.
