Implementing Duex 5 w/Duet WiFi

TNC

I need help setting up my Duex 5 board w/ Duet WiFi; pictured is the build. Unsuccessful w/RRF Config. tool
on Expansion board page. The link below is the ambitious project.

Ballscrews utilized for movement; marginal success with Cartesian
setup in RRF tool. Homing, movement, speeds...etc
Where do I begin???

This might be a good jumping off point.

Using NEMA23 with ballscrews on a Duet2 or Duex5 will be a disapointing experience.
I've built a CNC machine with similar components. The 3A steppers suited Duet2 motor current capabilities well, but the 24V max. made them quite slow, even for a CNC.
You should consider the Duet2 expansion board and use external stepper drivers with 50V PSU instead.

Just my 2 cent

Post your config.g, and response to M122. Also motor make and model, and ballscrew lead/pitch. You can check how much speed/torque you can get out of the motors by using the 'EMF calculator' here: https://www.reprapfirmware.org/

Before reading the above documentation I made it to this point.
Thanks for putting me back on track!!!
