    I purchased a set of these 4 motors and 1 controller and they are installed to my 4080 alumninum frame but I cant seem to get any motion from them other than when I power them on. Ive plugged the motors into their respective 6pin slots as labeled, the lights on the motors turn on. But I cant figure out how to get motion

    Now, im not sure what kind of controller it uses, i think it's some sort of Ardunino? but I SMC3util doesnt detect it, or is it a windows 11 problem?

    Thats what it shows in the device manager. I've tried different settings in Simtools v3 but haven't got it to work at all. So Im wondering if anyone else has any experience with these? Theyre also sold on ebay and aliexpress but I got them locally from a shop in Shenzhen and im no longer there.

    Any ideas to test what kind of controller it is, or any other programs I can test whether it's a hardware problem or software problem? Thank you very much!
