How to set up SmoothieBoard 1.1?

How can I set up SmoothieBoard 1.1 for use with a CNC router that has one stepper motor for X-Axis, two stepper motors for Y-Axis, one stepper motor for Z-Axis, a 24VDC motor as spindle, three homing switches, and an E-Stop? The stepper motors are Moons 17HD4063-06N. I’m hearing-impaired and I can’t watch any videos that don’t have captioning. I tried to read the documentation but I got confused. I need to slave one axis to another axis. Any suggestions?

I don’t think you need anything that isn’t covered in the cnc mill guide.

For your Y axis, if you have two stepper motor drivers, you just wire those in parralel to the smoothieboard’s step and direction signals and it’ll work fine.
