So now what you have to do is start inputting data from scratch, first you need to go to d001 and change it, its currently at 0 and needs to be set to no. 1 to make changes to the current "d" settings list.
Then as Greg pointed out there is a sequence you have to follow to input data correctly, once you understand this and remember it has to be in that order, it will get easier as I found out from the beginning. Then using all of Greg's info input the data, when your done inputting the data correctly you can then hit the function button and it will reset to green meaning you've input all the correct data and the VFD now knows it has enough data to start safely.
The VFD will change the flashing zeros and lock to a steady list of zeros and stay that way.You have completed the basic reset of the VFD all inputs have taken. If you see the 50.00 flashing on the screen your still at the basic reset values that are flashing. You have to put in all the correct ones before it clears. So you really have to pay attention to what's happening so you don't mess up the inputs or you'll miss one and that's not a good thing, then once your sure you have it
reset d001 to zero which now locks all the values you put in because if you don't then you or someonelse can change the values at ant time till you lock it up with the d001 reset to "0" its gonna take a little getting use too and please read the manual first, give it a go good luck,
P.s using these settings and making some adjustments I now have my system up and running as of yesterday with the mach3 program controlling the spindle speed, I still need to make some adjustments in my opinion but hay its more then I had 4 weeks ago, nothing but flashing zeros and no idea why, straight out of the boxmachono info at all till I came here, the instant I turned it on it was flashing zeros and would not lock to green when I hit the function key, it will once you get the inputs correct.
