No power when stepper drivers are installed

RickG has a fix that worked for me

hi, it’s written in python, it’s not much but it works, enter the file name and the length of one arm(mm) and it should correct the gcode, if you have any issues just let me know, thanks

import re

fileName = input("enter file name: ")
armLength = float(input("enter single arm length(mm): "))

header = []
coords = []

with open(fileName + ".gcode") as file:
    for line in file:
        if "G01" in line:
            coords.append(line)
        else:
            header.append(line)

def updateHeader(list):
    newCoords = []
    for i in list:
        newCoords.append(i)
        h = ''.join(newCoords)
    return h

def updateCoords(list):
    newCoords = []
    for i in list:
        coord = (re.findall("[+-]?\d+\.\d+", i))
        coord[0] = float(coord[0])
        coord[0] = round(coord[0] - armLength * 2, 3)
        coord[1] = float(coord[1])
        coord[1] = round(coord[1] - armLength * 2, 3)
        x = str(coord[0])
        y = str(coord[1])

        line = "G01 " + "X" + x + " " + "Y" + y + "\n"
        newCoords.append(line)
        s = ''.join(newCoords)
    return s

f = open("Updated " + fileName + ".Gcode", "w+")
f.write(updateHeader(header))
f.write(updateCoords(coords))

hi, it seems like the website doesn’t make the centre of the circle (0,0) and tries to make an odd path there, I have made a program I’m python that does fix this and will make them useable if you would like it just let me know
