    Dear friends of the AxiDraw,
    I recently purchase the AxiDraw V3/A3. I have set it up according to the manual. When using the “Toggle between UP, DOWN position”, the servo does not move. Drawing with Inkscape works, however the pen always stays in the lowest position with the blue servo never doing anything. Which means even the line where the pen moves to home position is drawn on the paper.

    I’m using macOS Mojave Version 10.14.1 on a MacBook Pro 13″ with AxiDraw for Mac v178.

    Restarting did not help. Does anybody know what could be wrong?

    I solved the mystery. A cable was not entirely plugged in. Thank you for your help :)

    That’s one of the things that you need to do when you open the box. :)

    Glad to hear that you’ve got it up and running!
