Moons stepper issue

Hello, im having problems with my moons steppers. i changed in the firmware the microsteps to 16 and the esteps from 100 to 200 for Y and X.

I tried different values for #define TMC2130_CURRENTS_H, too. But nothing work.

 

Firmware: 3.9.3

Prusa i3 MK3s

Any idea?

Yeah.  Same ones I have.  Drop in replacements - no settings changes required.  Recommend restoring to original motor specs/settings.

Okay so again to 32 microsteps? The bondtech upgrade firmware changed to already down to 16.

RE: Moons stepper issue

Your post reference X and Y - not E.  If you have the finer resolution motor on E, I wouldn't change that.  Only change X and Y back to stock. This was the easiest motor upgrade because I didn't need to mess with settings, or redoing them some day if I need to factory reset.

RE: Moons stepper issue

Out of my league.  I went for those motors because they required no firmware changes on a stock printer to adopt for X Y or E.  So mine are working wonderfully - nice and quiet, all of my old tuned GCODES are printing better.

Here's a thought.  Factory reset - should revert to whatever the original settings are.

I don't know the math - is a microstep the # of steps in a degree?   Anyway, factory reset might help you get your X/Y settings back, but then you will need to redo your E if you have changed that out to a different ratio.

I found the solution.

i talked to this a few weeks ago to a forum member and he told me that 8 microstepps won’t work on this. I tried 8 microstepps and it worked perfect. 🙂
