Verify Stepper Motor Enable Pin
Last updated

This section explains how to verify if all of the printer axes can move freely when the stepper motors are disabled.
Go to your Anycubic Vyper 3D printer and physically check that you can move;
The print head (left and right);
The print head (up and down);
You don't have to move it very far you are just confirming that the motors are not engaged;
The print bed (front and back);
If they do not move freely;
Send a M84
command in the Console
(this should disable the stepper motors);
If any of the axes still cannot move freely, then verify the stepper 'enable_pin' configuration for the given axis. On most commodity stepper motor drivers, the motor enable pin is 'active low' and therefore the enable pin should have a "!" before the pin (for example, "enable_pin: !ar38").
As long as you are using the printer.cfg
file from the section, you shouldn't have any issues unless there was a wiring issue from factory;
