Setting Up On A CNC Shield v4.

adding some pics.

switch and connections

steppers and display connections

display

other setups

Even though not on a printer (not sure which one to put it on), ready for the other PRO features :)

yes, I got it to work. Not all V4 boards are the same so that is why I got the Keystudio one. Here are some links that you can look at also. How to Use the CNC V4 Board (despite Its "quirks") : 4 Steps - Instructables

did you short the stepper pins to find the pairs?

when I was having trouble with my CNC boards, I used this code to test. Not my code but simple to use for testing.
