That doesn’t look like the test crown. But I don’t see anything that would turn off the motors here.
Yes I do
I didn’t see anything either. Can you please describe the complete list of steps you’re using to get the gcode and execute it on your lowrider? Something is turning off the motors, but we can’t see what in the code you’ve posted so far. A full description of your process may help us to understand where the mystery command may be coming from.
I don’t run a tft - any chance it is appending any commands?
I followed the EstlCAM setup from v1 engineering
open a download crown dxf file
start EstlCAM
open file crown dxf file
select crown and resize
select zero and positioned left corner away from the crown
select Engraving icon
select the center line
selecting the line of crown
save cnc program
open Repetier Host
load the file I saved
finally I save it to sd card
and run
You are generating your own gcode, using estlcam, which I haven’t done yet so I can’t help troubleshoot that part of the process. There is pre-built gcode for the test crown that you should be able to save directly to the SD card and run as-is. Does the Z axis drop if you use the pre-built code?
I’ve annotated the last few lines of your gcode:
G00 Z2.0000 F480 ; Travel move of Z to 2 mm above origin
G00 X0.0000 Y0.0000 F2100 ; Travel move of X and Y to origin
M05 - this turns off the spindle, assuming you’ve got spindle control or a relay
Prior to the final Z move you were engraving at a height of Z minus 1 mm. All of which looks normal to me. I don’t see where you set the workpiece origin in your process but that wouldn’t explain how/why your steppers are getting disabled.
I have copied the gcode link you given and run but unfortunately it is the same .
no changes
We’re getting beyond my ability to dig in much further. Did you use Repetier Host to save the downloaded file before putting it on the SD card, or did you save directly to the SD card?
I used a Repetier-Host
I swiped the driver but it is the same
Just to be clear, after saving to the SD card, the card gets moved to the lowrider and the controller there is used to actually start the code, right? Repetier Host isn’t being used to actually run the job, is it?
Can you save the pre-built code directly to the SD card without using Repetier Host? Alternatively can you upload the file from the SD card that you’re actually running? I feel as though Repetier is what’s turning the steppers off, but can’t confirm that from the code I’ve seen so far.
Sorry, I’m out of ideas.

yes after saving directly to the lowrider controller
