    It doesn't appear that you set smc3 to mode 2 in the sketch. It won't work with ibt-2 until you do.

    I did not understand ground isolated, I tested all the motors and they do not work, I have basic knowledge, smc3 running 100%, but they do not drive motors, maybe I should give up the project

    Have you done at least one race in LFS before patching to setup necessary files?

    before using smc3, it worked normal, with another 2dof program, now with smc3 does not want to activate engines,
    Sorry for my translation.

    You are using the wrong output settings for smc3.

    Setup for Simtools 2 is very straight forward:

    [A<Axis1a>][B<Axis2a>][C<Axis3a>]

    Set for 10bit binary output

    Baud rate 500000 , N , 8 , 1 (10ms delay)

    Is my setup wrong? Simtools does not work, engine does not work, I've done everything and nothing, does anyone help me?

    Really? :confused: Check your baud rate setting then look at my previous post again more carefully this time.

    already change everything and nothing, I believe to be here >>>> [A <Axis1a>] [B <Axis2a>] [C <Axis3a] because I use other software and it works, please give me a hint where I am wrong, Only the axes can be

    Are you closing smc3 utilities before starting simtools? Two apps can't talk to an arduino on the same com port at the same time so the first one connected locks out the other.

    Honestly good things come to those who takes patience. I suppose your settings are wrong somewhere. Please upload any screenshots of all related settings. And not to forget we are not paid for any support, we do this by choice.

    The video shows decimal output not binary.
    Please fix and try again.

    The Guru @yobuddy himself ;), honestly this issue has been discussed above and the solution has been posted by @BlazinH. IMHO we should advise our members reading the manuals at first before we are going gray o_O
