What happened?

A few months ago I could not get the board to function and after a lot of support I decided to stop and stored the card. This week I reinstalled FLUIDNC because I wanted to have a go at it again to let drive my custom machine. I installed the yaml file which I downloaded. I changed the drivers to see if it would help, but no.

The X driver is not detected but the X2 one is detected. Have you tried swapping them to see if the fault moves? If so, it could be a faulty driver. If not, it could be a faulty 6 pack board.

A lot of circuitry is shared with x and x2, so it is most likely a driver problem if one works.

Try swapping some drivers.

I think this is fixed in v3.9.3
