Hi,
I am new to this whole CNC Theme and are currently building a my first Machine. I finished my Control Cabinet and did my pcconf.
Now, if I hit the enable button on my gui, i cant move the steppers anymore but if I want to move the motor, nothing happens. I checked my pins multiple times and Config and can‘t figure out where the problem is. Has anyone any Idea?

please post the .hal and .ini files from your machine configuration folder.
[edit]
Also are the status leds of your mesa card lit as per the description of page 12 in the manual? :

Are the step drive enables connected?
Note that these are most often DISABLE inputs so disable the drives when active

If I press enable in the programm, the right voltage is applied to enable and the motors is locked.

In your ini file, from this
DIRSETUP = 7000
DIRHOLD = 7000
STEPLEN = 3500
STEPSPACE = 3500
to this
DIRSETUP = 20000
DIRHOLD = 20000
STEPLEN = 5000
STEPSPACE = 5000
DIRSETUP = 7000
DIRHOLD = 7000
STEPLEN = 3500
STEPSPACE = 3500
to this
DIRSETUP = 20000
DIRHOLD = 20000
STEPLEN = 5000
STEPSPACE = 5000

On the Mesa side, remove step- and wire it to GND.
Try one drive.
Just to be sure, do motors lock when LinuxCNC is running and enabled with F2 or Enable button on GUI?
