chineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese stuff bought mine in (NFLD and so did a guy in NS Can.) from a Canadian dealer called www.intelicam.ca..................boy what a mistake 14 months later we are talking with a real time certified engineer in 45 min. we found out just how much the former ceo and his partner of cam tech knows about the product he now sells the machines never had a chance from leveling / screws / wireing/ programming
this guy even went so far as to replace one of the machines with a worse then the first one delivered now we have 3 37000$ paper weights
but again they can be re fitted for aprox 3600$ each to a level where we can start the table leveling process after that with tool changer software we can began to attack atc issues what a waste of human time energy and money is there any way we can let the world at large know about this chineeeeeeeeeeeese mouse trap

UNQUOTE" Well as you can see this thakes care of some of my problems, and should help a few others if they are thinking of buying one of these machines NOW< ! how do you ensure everything is square, the rails are parralell and the router will cut accuratley

hi, Salty72

do the yellow wires have a positive charge or negative charge?

thanks

[Salty72]

The yellow wires are the trailing edges of the pulses hence "CW-" the software can be configured with either (+ve) going pulse or (-Ve) going pulse, as a result if the yellow is tied low the pulse will go Hi.
from here open Mach3 and ensure the "trigger on" is set to (+ve) going pulse

hope this helps

thanks Salty72, but my problem is that I actually don't have the chinese router
all i have is the cw250 drivers I guess what I need is the settings for mach 3 I hooked up the wires, but have no movement in any of the motors, one of them only stutters.

if anybody has the settings i would appreciated thanks

Just did a quick Google search and found this site
http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/webtronics/CW250.pdf
they have the pinout for the drivers.. \
let me know if you need more info

[cabnet636]

the keling site has the diagrams for most all the chinese drivers

[asdasd]

thanks Salty72 for your help, I took the time to draw a diagram (since the manufacturer doesn't have the right info for the driver) with help from Luca and you this is how the inputs should be wired, also probotix has the settings for mach3 and the driver
