Error: All LOW and Error:Printer halted.kill() called!

in AXIS 3D Printer

Hi all, as soon as I hit connect on Pronterface I'm given this error:


Connecting...

Printer is now online.

Testing Y connection... Error: All LOW

Testing Z connection... Error: All LOW

Testing E connection... Error: All LOW

Testing E1 connection... Error: All LOW


And after clicking any of the home icons I receive:

Error:Printer halted. kill() called!

[ERROR] Error:Printer halted. kill() called!


I'm kinda new to 3D printers, AXIS 3D being my 2nd, so sorry if I sound dumb. I've followed the tutorial as well as I could, installing the Firmware following Stage 9. As well, the X-axis does not seem to want to move, despite being able to move it by hand with no resistance. The only addon I've got is the heated bed.


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked in the Arduino file to make sure you have the correct stepper motor settings? I have the E0 and E1 error, but Ive got the upgraded stepper motor and the X, Y and Z are good for me.

Look like that was the issue. I Just reverted some lines back to their default. Thank you so much for your suggestion. As for the X-axis not working, I took off the belt to make sure it wasn't the plate. Looks like I may have been sent a faulty motor, jittering in place. Suppose I'll have to message Makertech.

I have the TMC2208 for the first three and I have the jumpers in the UART. The others have the jumpers underneath the A4988's.

As @Alex Koch mentions above, do you have TMC2208 set for all stepper motors or just the X, Y, and Z (Configuration.h)? If it's still giving you trouble try swapping to another A4988.

TMC2208's or the A4988's? Make sure you have the board in either UART mode or step/dir mode by having the jumpers in the correct place.

@Nathan Eddy Sorry I don't follow. Did I get what working? My printer is dead and is in parts salvage. I gave up on the whole exercise as I had some fun working on it but I realized that I could keep dumping money in it and I just didn't have the heart any more.

@Michael G Awww really? However, after all that comments here and at KS... can i that really understand. The presentation of the printer at KS and the real product are diffrent. Im sure Makertech had something else in mind. But the printer is really too complicated to setup. For sure no product to buy it just so for having a 3D printer.

Let me say, i don't got the Axis. I used my money (and some more money) at the end of the campaign to order the Proforge S2. I still had almost a month challenge to get it working. I had to improve a few things and have to life with some not really clever construction issues. But (BUT) it is much much easier to assemble and to program than the Axis.

I had a lot to learn. And, if Makertech is interested to improve their products, they can get plenty of input from my side.

I need help with this too! Mine doesn't show "All Low" for all the axes just E1. I have the dual extruder upgrade and have installed the 2nd extruder.

Testing X connection... OK

Testing Y connection... OK

Testing Z connection... OK

Testing E connection... OK

Testing E1 connection... Error: All LOW

@Lau vdK so I kept all 5 TMC on the board, I still receive the error in Pronterface for the E1, however the 2nd extruder still works.

I also occasionally see a "TMC Connection Error" on the screen, but again, all the motors function just fine.

@Pritesh I have the same error.

All the motors have the TMC driver, and only E1 has any issue.


I have done all the same troubleshooting as everyone else here.
