PWM test
When you are in doubt that the X, Y or Z motor still functions correctly, verify this as follows:
Go to diagnostics mode 1 or 2
Step 1:
Refer to
Refer to
Press on the PWM test button
Step 2:
Choose one of the three directions
Step 3:
Increase or decrease the PWM value to check if the motor still works
Step 4:
As from the moment you press
Step 5:

X = grit rollers
Y = head
Z = pen
X-motor
Increase (+) the value to rotate the grit rollers forward.
Decrease (-) the value to rotate the grit rollers backward.
The X-motor should react at a PWM between 150 and 300 with the pressure
rollers down. If not, the motor is broken or there is a mechanical interference.
Y-motor
Increase (+) the value to move the head to the left.
Decrease (-) the value to move the head to the right.
The Y-motor should react at a PWM between 100 and 150. If not, the motor is
broken or there is a mechanical interference.
Z-motor
Increase (+) the value to lower the pen/knife
Decrease (-) the value to rotate the pen/knife
The Z-motor should react at a PWM between 150 and 300. If not, the motor is
broken or there is a mechanical interference.
