Hi everybody,
As I am still struggling with Mach3 and my Home Made CNC composed of a NVEM (controller) + a 2.2kW Spindle and VFD + 6 DM542 Drivers + 6 NEMA23, I try again to require your help.
For the moment, I only managed to perfectly connect and control my MPG with Mach 3 and the NVEM.
So the connection between Mach3 and my NVEM is OK.
Today I tried to do the job with my Spindle+VFD using Mach3 (it works manually) but unfortunately there is something wrong...
I connected the VFD pins as followed :
DCM -> GND1 (I also tried with ACM and ACM+DCM, but I don't know which is correct)
VI -> VS0
FOR -> OUT1
REV -> OUT2
I used the followings settings in Mach 3 :
This is the max speed of my Spindle 24000 tr/min
Here I don't know if the value 100 for turn manual Spindle Incr. is right, and 5 for Spindle 0V increment...
Here I don't understand what to enter (step per ?...)
Here I tried different PWMBase Freq. (5 / 50 /100). Nothing works.
Here I followed NVEM instructions
Here too
And I changed the settings in the VFD to do PD001 -> 1, PD002 -> 1. Is there anything else to change in the VFD ?
On VS0 (NVEM) I have always 10V (even if change the Spindle speed in Mach 3). On OUT1 and OUT2 I have 24V ... I don't know if it's right ?
Does anybody have an idea what is wrong with my settings ?
By the way, I still have not managed to run my stepper motors... They heat very slowly but do not run...
Cheers
