[Grbl_Esp32 Issue#665] TMC5160 StallGuard Help

#4 – GaryLyon 于 2020-11-06

Startup message is attached. Settings was in the first message. I’ve had the check motor power message before but when I do a full off and back on I don’t see it. Running BigTreeTech TMC5160 V1.2 on 24V. After the startup, the motors did move.

Is stallguard just not supported for homing but is when running with dual motor axis? I’ve had issues with missed steps in the past so I switched to this platform and picked up the 5160 steppers.

What type of power supply are you using?

#6 – bdring 于 2020-11-07

Please post your settings. Send $S to see them and post them in the message…not attached please.

#7 – GaryLyon 于 2020-11-07

It is a generic 24v 15a power supply.

As a test, try changing the current to 0.5A run and 0.25 hold. If it runs, it could be issues with your power supply.

$X/Current/Run=0.5
$X/Current/Hold=0.25

For all your axes.

Can you attach your machine definition file?

#11 – GaryLyon 于 2020-11-07

It is triggering the protection on the 19v 7A power supply on startup/test. Is there an option to test one at a time?

Did you get an invite to Slack? Can we continue working on this there?

#13 – GaryLyon 于 2020-11-07

I’m fine with Slack but I don’t see an invite. Would it be here, gmail, tindie, or in slack? (I did check all of those places.)

#14 – GaryLyon 于 2020-11-07

The steps we followed to find the problem was remove all drivers except one. Power on, connect usb, reboot esp and check log messages. If successful, remove usb, remove power, add next driver and follow the steps again.

Issue occurred again to me once I added in my 6th stepper. I am not using that axis and just assumed it should be in there.

tldr – Don’t have a driver in an axis you aren’t using.

Thanks again for your help bdring!
