without power connected, if you tilt the mendel, does the plate/carriage slide freely?
Possibly it's "stuck".

with "home all" it always does X-axis first, then Y and then Z.....
can you do +10/-10 on any of the axis manually?

Did you change the multiplyer in repsnapper.. if you try to move a motor too fast.. it will make a beep sound...

or did you change the motor speeds on printer settings?

Al...

Hello
I have not changed any parameter in repsnapper the speed is 19200.
I reinstalled the drivers and repsnapper.
I tried to print but nothing happens.
Now connecting in the USB and power on LEDs light up and debug.
the motors are locked and the x engine sounds like it x if it worked,
without sending any data from pc

perhaps i connected the wrong poles + and -, this can damaged the PCB GEN6 II°???

Thanks

Can you set the nozzle temperature? If you change the temp to approx 100C and enable the temperature reading, you will get a green led in the neighbourhood of the extruder connector. When you set the heater off this led will turn off again.

Does this work or not?

When this works you DO have communication with PC and you might have damaged you electronics.
When this doesn`t work, you probably don`t have communication with your PC.

You said you changed the + and -? You mean the + and - off the green power-conenctor? What kind of power supply do you use?
