      <content:encoded><![CDATA[My new OpenRail CNC machine will use 2 steppers to drive the X Axis.  I have an Easy CNC driver board where one of the driver circuits went bad and replaced the card with a new one.  My question is, can I use one of the drivers on my extra board as the driver for the second X stepper?  And, if so, how would it be connected?  Thanks.]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I so did&#039;t want to get the Easy CNC board but decided in the end to get it with the kit because it was convenient. I&#039;m now regretting it. I never really got to run my machine. I made maybe 4, very short, test cuts but mostly I was spending my time trying to calibrate the machine. I checked, periodically, if the chips get warm. They did, but not to much so. I have bigger stepper on the x and the y. First I thought that the problem was that the pulley slipped on the x stepper. That was one of...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[It has come to our attention that a batch of Easy CNC Driver boards included bad opto-isolators. If your board looks like the one below, you may need replacement chips. We have a batch of them heading our way and will take care of distributing them. Your symptoms may include bit drift or missing steps (especially along the Z). <br />
<br />
This has been a mystery to all of us for some time and very frustrating. Thank you all for your patience and understanding throughout this and for all of your...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I fried the chip for my &quot;Z&quot; axis. It was not moving, only buzzing a little. When I tried to remove the chip to replace it I fractured the &quot;socket&quot; it plugs into, now that is broken. Can that part be replaced (a yes answer here would have to mean it can be replaced by a bozo) or should I just buy a entire new circuit board? Anyone know how to get those chips out without damaging something. The chip was in really tight and when I pried up on it the base cracked and broke. Any suggestions would...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Was in midstream of cutting out a small card holder I need to hold business cards and the printer was singing along when it just said I quit!  Checked out the Y chip and sure enough it was gone. It all lights up when I pull the Y chip out so that tells me it is burnt out. I really think I did not seat the heat sink in completely. I am soaking the metal piece that goes in between the chip and heat sink and will use the thin heat sink tape this time. I used a dab of ca and paste to hold it in...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I was steaming through the shop at Mach 7 and out of the corner of my eye I see a heatsink sitting on the table :?:  So I flip a U-ie and find its the Y heatsink and it had simply fallen off the board <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" />  Further inspection indicates a simply double side tape adhesive is what holds it on. <br />
<br />
Well that is not going to work for me. I don&#039;t know how close to a ziptie my fix will be, but its leaning in that direction <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:" />  I&#039;m going to dig out the computer box and see what I have in thermal...<br />
