Hi Tomas!
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I am originally from Croatia and I live in North Carolina, USA.
Are you also building a CNC machine or you already have one? Electronics is not my thing so this has been a struggle for me but I think I'm getting closer. Made a little more progress on the control box. It looks a little neater. Got the right rotary switch this time. I'm waiting on the VFD filter now.
I actually connected, wired the spindle and VFD today. I used the instructions and settings that came with the spindle. Do you by any chance know what settings I possibly need to adjust to not have any problems down the road. This is what I have now. My spindle is 2.2kw 220v water-cooled.
PD000=0 ( for Parameter unlock ( 1 ) for Parameter Lock)
PD001=0 (1 For Remote Control)
PD002=1 ( 1 For 0-10v Terminal Control or Remote Trim Pot Control )( J1 Also Needs to be set for Terminal Control )
PD003=400
PD004=400 (base frequency)
PD005=400 (max operating frequency)
PD006=2.5
PD007=0.50
PD008=220 (Motor Rated Voltage, If you have 120v spindle then set to 120v )
PD009=13
PD010=6.5
PD011= 0 (120) ( 100 Minimum Setting with Quality VFD, 120 is Safe)
PD013= 08 ( is for Factory reset, Only use this to set VFD to Factory Default Settings)
PD014=10 ( Adjust to suit)
PD015=10 (Deceleration=12 (Adjust to suit)( PD15 is ignored IF PD26=1 Then the Spindle will Coast to a Stop)
PD070=1 ( This may need to be set to 1 if Control Voltage is 0-5v )
PD072=400 (high analog frequency)
PD073=0 (120) ( 100 Minimum Setting )
PD141=220 ( Motor Rated Voltage ) (120 for VFD Rated for 120v )
PD142= 9 ( 220vSet for your motor Amp Rating 2.2Kw Spindle 9 amp
PD143=4 ( Motor Number of Poles)
PD144=3000 (Max Motor RPM) =3,000= (24,000)
The last thing, Do you know how to wire the VFD to MB3/ESS board? It would be nice to control the spindle with the MACH4!
Right now I got it controlled with a knob on the front of the VFD
