Felicidades por ese comienzo, me apunto a seguirte en tu construcción.

Como puedes ver yo tengo la mía under construction desde hace miles de años, a ver si le doy un empujon.

Supuestamente tu mesa es de 3x2 metros

good, buy you steel this week to start working with my MM, future numbers? lol, I will try to be as accurate as possible to the original, I did some drawings that are perfect for construction because you can take action and everything. Google SketchUp is very good.

I have the files in Google SketchUp if somebody wants me know

If you are buying from Deitech, do get extra length of rack. You might have to discard 2~3inches of the ends. Even so, its still a bargain...

hello friend, do not speak of the rack, and buy 7.5 meters, I'm talking big steel rails October 10 320.
in my country it is difficult to find 10 10 320 steel. I found one but 3000mm * 240mm * 75mm, if that's okay? or is very heavy and big?

Nothing wrong with 75x240x300mm. Some of us here like it big and heavy.

Is that for the W-wheel? Is it a screw with built in concentric bush? You can use the if you like but a simple screw works just fine.

Looks like you need your resistors on the geckos and you have a look at your other 4 wires on the steppers, how are they to be wired? Bi-polar series, bi-polar parallel or unipolar, you will have to pair them properly, its the set up you used to help you choose the power supply. I haven't really looked at the other wiring.

hello tom: half coil

had an error with the black wire, and change it to white, it caught all good, but when you connect the parallel port, the plate 122 pmdx led all turned dull, turn it off and went back to fast on and lit a fire ship in the plate

and i do not know why I spend so conctado if everything was ok, the problem arose when connecting the cable from the parallel port,

has the parallel port cable original cable some different settings?

I probe the small connector db25 pin 20 and all had good continuity.

I could go there?

two images: 1 all working, and the other the ship burned.

Are you saying that your board burned up? that wouldn't be good. In the picture of posting #23 I see no resistors on the gecko drives, have you put the resistors on? Does the PMDX 122 have a 'test mode' you can run? If it does you will want to run it first before connecting to the computer. I have the PMDX 126 which does have a test mode set up. Find the wiring diagram for the steppers and wire them accordingly. http://www.mechmate.com/forums/showt...f+coil+winding 2nd or 3rd posting down. Good luck.

If you have 8 wires, pair them like the first image, if you have only 4 wires then they will likely be directly connected to the drivers.

Your manual for the board should have the information about test mode(s) if any available.

Page 6 of your manual shows an example set up, that's all I can recommend for the board to drivers connections, like I said, I do not have the 122. If all does not work, you may need a new board.

You will have to look at the geckos for the resistor values, the steppers help determine the amperage required to operate properly. Again I did not use geckos so you will have to find the information throughout the forum, in your manual, or on a support website. Sorry but I can not help you on this part.
