Moving to the spindle now...
The ESS is working with the PMDX-126 and Mach4. The limit switches and motors are working, now it is time for the spindle via a Delta VFD-E. I would like to use the relays onboard the PMDX-126 to denote spindle direction. I believe my wiring is correct, but I need some help with the configuration. Looking at the setup below, can you please tell me how to configure the ESS and Mach4?
JP1 - Multimode
K1 Com --> VFD - DCM -- Input signal
K1 N/O --> VFD - M1 --> ESS - Clockwise
JP2 - Multimode
K2 Com --> VFD - DCM --> Input Signal
K2 N/O --> VFD - M2 --> ESS Counter Clockwise
J6 - 1 = PC5v+ --> VFD - ACM --> ESS - Spindle COM
J6 - 16 = Port 1 Pin 16 --> VFD - AVI --> ESS - Spindle PWM
Motor 5 is set up as a CW/CCW. When I run test commands (M3 and M4), I do not hear the relays on the board clicking. If you have any setup suggestions I would love to hear about them.
