Motor locks but will not move when testing was created by waukeenahBob
I have experience with linux and used Mach3 for years... new system so no mach conf file to start with
Running on a 4 yr old pc... pcie paralell card
ST-V3 Breakout Board
DM860T driver
lcpci -v gives me this
01:00.2 Parallel controller: MosChip Semiconductor Technology Ltd. PCIe 9912 Multi-I/O Controller (prog-if 03 [IEEE1284])
Subsystem: Asix Electronics Corporation (Wrong ID) PCIe 9912 Multi-I/O Controller
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 18
I/O ports at d800
I/O ports at d480
Memory at feafb000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Memory at feafa000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Kernel driver in use: parport_serial
Kernel modules: parport_serial
step conf settings
parport base address of 0 or d800
driver type - other
Step Time 5000
step space 5000
direction hold 10000
direction setup 15000
testing Z axis only
pin 6 Z step
pin 7 Z direction
motor steps per revolution 200
microstepping 2
when I test the axis I hear the relay click on the breakout board and the motor locks so that I cannot turn it with my hand but I get no movement
Not sure where my issue is... think I am close but not sure where to go next

Address should be 0xd800
Also try the other address if this does not work.
Do reboot the PC after address change and failed tests

Tried 0xd800 no change in behavior.... I hear the relay click...not sure why that is happening
with 0xd480 nothing happens at all

OK that should confirm it is working, so set the base period to 100000 and step time and space to 10000 and try to jog the machine.Tried 0xd800 no change in behavior.... I hear the relay click...not sure why that is happening

Just so we are on the same page... I am using Stepconf to test 1 driver and stepper motor...
changed base period , step time, and space as suggested
no change in behavior...
I have triple checked the wiring

Finish StepConf, save, start the config and try to move the machine.
StepConf is a wizard, and very good at what it does, but it can not account for every hardware variant/version/setup out there.
Also, if you have drive enable wired, disconnect them till you get the machine moving, then you can wire and test enable.

Ok... saved and exited StepConf
Started config it saved
I hear the relay tripping on the BOB
Toggled E Stop and Power in UI
I see the DRO changing but still no movement on the stepper
