Grbl (Arduino G-Code Processor) – Pin Layout

2013/01/30 4:00 am / 35 Comments / Bertus Kruger
Grbl Pin Layout

Grbl is an opensource software that turns your Arduino development board into a full blown G-Code interpreter. Below the layout of the pins on the Arduino board. Each Stepper Motor Driver needs to be connected to the following pins: Stepper Driver Enable/Disable – Pin 8 Direction – Pin 5-7 depending on the Axis(X,Y,Z) Stepping Pulse … Read More →
