n00b to the 3d printing world

Let's Start with calibrating the stepper motor current.

Before you start adjustments, measure all steppers motor currents and log them somewhere.
Current adjustments can be made using USB cable or the Stock power supply.
Watch this Video and after you will get a good ideal of what is going on, make your adjustments.

May not be any reason to adjust those that are working.
The Lower you can run the Steppers the Longer they will last.


Having the Same controller as you will show you my readings using a USB cable for power.
Made the adjustments on my 3DP11 the numbers are .936 on all but the Z and this is 1.2 all are higher than suggested.
Now on my 3DP12 with 24 volt supply they are .5 on all but Z and this is .9. lower than suggested.
Tried to get lower but steppers would start acting up like yours


The adjustments for the stepper motors are basically the same for all 3D Printers.
There are other videos that tell you to start with a lower voltage and slowly raise it until the steppers turn smoothly.

When I received my used 3DP11 the Extruder Stepper motor turn in the opposite direction of what it was suppose to so I reversed the wiring making it run correctly.
