Gen6 Electronics Stepper Motor Pin Outs

Hi all,

I'm using an old Reprap Mendel for a new project but am having some pin out issues with it's Gen 6 electronics.

Does anyone know the pinouts for the XYZ stepper motors in terms of Red/Green/Blue/Black wires so that I can re-assign them in Arduino?

From it's old firmware i know this much:


//x axis pins
#define X_STEP_PIN 15
#define X_DIR_PIN 18
#define X_ENABLE_PIN 19
#define X_STOP_PIN 20

//y axis pins
#define Y_STEP_PIN 23
#define Y_DIR_PIN 22
#define Y_ENABLE_PIN 24
#define Y_STOP_PIN 25

//z axis pins
#define Z_STEP_PIN 27
#define Z_DIR_PIN 28
#define Z_ENABLE_PIN 29
#define Z_STOP_PIN 30[/i]

But I dont know which colour wires are step pin/dir pin etc.

Thanks, Andrew

I don't know in your terminology.
Maybe this helps:

I replaced Gen6 by Ramps on Mega

The Gen6 connector was: blue / red / green / black
The Ramps connector was: Red / Black / Blue / Green

I had to cross connect for ramps as:

Gen6 blue to Ramps black
Gen6 red to Ramps red
Gen6 green to Ramps green
Gen6 black to Ramps blue

to get it all work.
