Title: schematic anyone?
Post by: guynamedbathgate on October 30, 2006, 05:46:47 PM

hello out there.

Im getting ready to start building my cnc mill and i have a rough idea about what im doing. but Im not one for trial and error. so i was wondering if anyone could point me to a fairly user friendly set of diagrams or something that might help me to put the electronics in order in my head before i start.I will be using Mach software of course. I have a power supply already ready to go. am using a servo setup with encoders and I have bought a breakout board from mister campbell. I will be using Gecko drivers with a fourth axis. the fourth axis will be a stepper motor without an encoder. thats all the information i can think of but if anyone can point me toward a idiots guide type of thing that'd be great. Not that Im an idiot mind you. just cautiouse. ;)

Hello Bathgate,
     I should have a good wiring diag. of my control cabinet next week. I have all of the stuff packed in a small box, lying on the table beside the box, you know, lets hook it up and see this puppy run kinda mess. As crazy as it sounds, I have not had any noise problems. I'm building my new cabinet end of this week, first of next. I'm only running steppers, no encoders. I'll give you what I have.

Duke..
I tried your web site but Earthlink tells me you don't exist...
  Is there something I'm not doing right?   ...Or is there a problem with your web site?

Thanks,  John (Bloy)
