What have I done wrong

[Stucarius]

I have finished building my machine. All firmware has been compiled and so far as I can tell I have successfully installed all elements both physically and software wise. However I cannot move on any axis. I can buzz all the stepper motors no problem but I cannot move them via console or gui interface. Nothing happens. Here is my build:

• Voron 2.4 r2 350mm
• BTT Pi2
• Kraken controller board
• Moon Steppers
• LDO Smart Orbiter 3 with the tool board (USB)
• BTT Eddy (USB)

I boot straight into klipper. No errors. What could be causing this?

Thanks ahead of time.

We need more information to be able to help, at least post your printer.cfg file.

In the meantime you could also double check the connections on your board, it's easy to swap connectors by mistake. Probably that isn't your problem, but it also doesn't hurt double checking everything.

Have you homed? Klipper doesn't allow motion when it doesn't know where things are

Heres my printer.cfg

I've been trying but when I put in the command or click home I get nothing. If it were not for my successfully buzzing the steppers I would think they were not hooked up. I uploaded my printer.cfg

could we get a klippy.log with some attempts to home in it?

Sure. I’ll post it up in the morning. Thanks for helping. Do you have any thoughts after seeing my printer config file?

not really. That's why I asked for the log. hoping it offers more inspiration...

Here is the Klippy Log

Here is the Klippy Log

I am relatively new to Klipper. I cannot make heads nor tails of the log. The only thing I did notice is that MCU S03 loaded but I did not see anything else load.

Silly question: what does `query_endstops` show?

Silly question: what does `query_endstops` show?

Silly answer…I don’t know. I do not have physical end stops. I am supposed to be using my Eddy for endstops.

 

[Stucarius]

Is it possible that the axis have been placed in a "parked" status somehow?

Well eddy is only for z. But your x and y aren't setup for sensorless homing...

So I'm going to ask the question again, with the clarification that I'm not asking what's *really* hooked up, I'm just asking what the output says when you run the command: what does query_endstops say?

 

[Stucarius]

What I get is a statement "Must home axis first: 1.000 0.000 0.000 [100.000]" When I click the X Axis movement button or enter it in console. I get the same response for each Axis. Is that what you wanted to know?

 

[Stucarius]

Also if it helps. The Z axis does not hold position. It just slowly falls to the bed. The steppers are all getting signal. I know that because they will buzz and rotate back and forth a few steps.

So far as I can tell it does nothing when I enter it.

that can't be right. should look kinda like this (my machine has an MMU, so it's got some extra endstops)

I don’t have physical endstops. I’m using the Eddy for that. Could that be the problem?

nor does the machine I took that screenshot on.
