I just got an AR8 pro yesterday. Got it all setup, things were working fine. Surfaced the spoilboard and then shut everything down. I came back today, turn it on and try to home all axis, and nothing happens. I hit cancel, go to move the steppers and the controller shows them moving but nothing is actually moving. I took the z axis shroud off, and tried to spin the ball screw by hand, and it spins, which leads me to believe the drivers do not have power. Also note that this is every axis and the spindle fires up no problem. Anyone else have this issue?

I have not had that specific issue, but I agree that your steppers are likely not getting power.
Check the large connector on the back of the machine, if the problem persists you may want to contact axiom support. However, if it's not the connector it's probably not the power supply as your handset is getting power, so maybe it's the drivers. If you're not an electrical guy, I suggest calling Axiom support first.

So far have checked all cable connections but no change, After speaking with chad at Axiom and a walk thru troubleshooting a new driver board is on the way, I have since run the surface spoil board program and will carry on with first project, Thanks Chad and Austin for the help
