Subject: Setup Spindle for PWM
Thank you for replying! I Think I finally got the UC100 setup right! I now have Output Signals set as follows: Output #1 UC100 Port1 Pin1, Spindle On UC100 Port1 Pin17, Spindle Fwd Port1 Pin14. Spindle 0 MinRPM 0.00, MaxRPM 24000. The only thing I need to do now is see if there is a way to display current RPM & calibrate a scale. If you have any pointers, I would appreciate any suggestions!
I think my problem was screwing around in the UC100 plugin. I contacted them and they said:
Hi,
I have checked the problem and the Spindle Mode dropdown box is obselete and it seems that my collegues accidentally forgot to remove it from the plugin form.
So, the Spindle Mode dropbox on the plugin form does nothing now and is already removed from the form in the upcoming plugin release.
If you want step/dir spindle then in the Mach configuration on the Spindle tab page there is a "Step/dir spindle Axis" selection and select the axis in that dropdown or select none if you want PWM spindle.
Best Regards,
Balazs
