<p>I tried to illustrate my problem in the videos above, two of them show the weird movement and the other shows me clicking on the home button repeatedly.</p>

<p>Some Info:</p>

<ul>
<li>Marlin 1.1.8 or 2.0.0 (same problem in both)</li>
<li>Robotdyn RAMPS 1.4</li>
<li>0.9 angle stepper motors</li>
<li>DRV8825 drivers configured at 0.8V Vref</li>
<li>Anet A2 Plus stock for all the rest</li>
</ul>

If you only connecct using USB,\n  but not external power, you get a wrong reading.</p>\n  \n  <p>You need to turn on your multimeter and set it at 2v. Put the red one\n  on the potentiometer and the Black one on the Gnd pin. Both are marked\n  on the images here.</p>\n  \n  <p>Before starting this I read they come with a very high vref setting,\n  and it is recommended to start around 0.5v Vref. After measuring mine,\n  I can confirm they come with a very high initial setting. Mine both\n  came at 1,65v or so! - Yours might be different, which just underlines\n  the importance of doing this.</p>\n  \n  <p>Contrary to normal potentiometer usage, the ones on most copies/clones\n  of DRV8825 are lowered by turning clock-wise, so that is what we will\n  do, to we hit 0,5v on each. - A quarter of a full turn lowered it to\n  0,7v, - after that it goes very, very rapidly down, so aim for the\n  quarter of a turn + a tiny tad more. If you buy your DRV8825 directly\n  from pololu.com the Potentiometer are dialed up by turning it\n  clock-wise:</p>\n</blockquote>\n\n<p><a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/Installing-and-Configuring-DRV8825-Stepper-Drivers/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">source</a></p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 5707, 'author': 'G-Pereira', 'author_id': 9874, 'author_profile': 'https://3dprinting.stackexchange.com/users/9874', 'pm_score': -1, 'selected': True, 'text': '<p>The problem was the logic of the endstops that were reversed</p>\n'}]
