I've fully constructed my M3 and moved to the "Test Movements" section. I have the settings in the G Code Sender set the same as in the directions. The machine is plugged in, lights and fan are on. However, I get no movement from the X, Y, or Z axis. I know that I've missed something but I can't for the life of me figure it out and I'm starting to go cross-eyed from reading forum posts lol. Is there something off of the top of your head that I should be looking into?
Thanks very much!

Hey. I'm sure we can get this straight pretty quick.
Are you seeing the read out values in UGS change as you press the jog buttons?
When you first open the connection in Universal G Code sender, does it fill up the console with a bunch of settings like 0= 1= 2=, etc?
Have you tuned the stepper drivers to 0.6V?

Sorry for the delayed response.
The Stepper drivers are at .6V
UGS shows no changes as I press the jog buttons.
UGS is not filling the console with settings

Hey. It sounds like the drivers for the computer to communicate with the board have not loaded in the background. Check device manager to see if it shows up as "unknown device" or Arduino Uno. There is a post at the top of this forum that explains how to manually load the drivers.
