<![CDATA[Step Motor Driver maybe not connect - core2 and stepmotor driver module 13.2]]>Hi!

I have a core2 stacked with a Stepmotor driver module 13.2 and a m5go bottom2stack.
I am using the stepmotor driver UI flow elements to program it:

code

No matter what I try I always get this error message when loading the code, as if the module isn't connected:

error

I know power is getting to the base because I can drive the LEDs, and the 12v power supply is a full 5a and does power the unit from the stepmotor base, so I can't figure out the error. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I just purchased a core2 and the driver module, just found your post after many failed attempts with the same error you got.

Turns out the stepmotor driver module is NOT compatible with Core2. Upsetting because on the page on the M5Stack store it says: "StepMotor Driver is adapted to M5 core series..." That's core SERIES, not just Core Basic. Fortunately I had a Core Basic and could test it. Works just fine.

Please let me know if I'm wrong about the Core2 compatibility. If it is let me know what I need to do to get it to work with Core2. Thanks.

Still looking for help on this.
