Hardware
See assembly instructions here re3d.dozuki.com
By measuring the Vref voltage in the motor drivers of the Azteeg X3, you can find and adjust the corresponding current limit for each driver.
Recommended Motor Driver Vref in 12V system
- X motor driver - 0.84 volts
- Y motor driver - 1.2 volts
- Z motor driver - 1.0 volts
- Ext motor driver - 0.84 volts
Recommended Motor Driver Vref Voltage in 24V system
- X motor driver - 0.84 volts
- Y motor driver - 1.1 volts
- Z motor driver - 0.8 volts
- Ext motor driver - 0.84 volts
Software
We recommend using Arduino IDE version 23 to load the firmware into gigabot's brain (aka azteeg controller board). This version is necessary to be compatible with some of the library's used to run the lcd screen, although it is possible to use the latest version of Arduino if libraries are carefully configured.
