Title: Mach with a CNC4PC C19 frequency converter
Post by: BigB on June 11, 2008, 11:06:41 AM
Hi,
I have a frequency converter that I have purchased to control my router speed.
It is wired and configured as far as I can tell.
I am using a C11 BOB.
When I give a speed in Mach and turn on the spindle the LED for the  pin (#3) comes on so I think I am getting a signal.
I am trying to use PWM mode.
I have 120volts at my plug at this point.
I have a hand drill hooked to my plug to test this setup.
When I try to run the drill the voltage drops to zero at the plug.
No matter what speed I put into Mach the same thing happens.
Does anyone have an idea what I might be doing wrong?
When I go to the diagnostic screen in MACH it shows the output pin (#3) pulsing but not staying on full time.
Please help, I have been messing with this for several days and am having NO luck.
Thanks,
BigB

I just got the C19 working, sort of.
When I am in e-stop the drill runs.
When I clear the e-stop I can't get anything to happen.
Must be a configuration issue.
I will keep at it but is anyone has any ideas I am all ears.
Thanks once again.
