General Mach Discussion / Spindle control problem
« on: July 09, 2016, 08:45:35 AM »
Hello,
I am finishing my spindle setup with Gecko G540 and i have badly stucked. So far I was able to setup VFD in the right way for my spindle (1.5Kw 400hz 220V) And now I have and issue i cant solve. I have my wires plugged right i followed mach 3 settings everything seems to communicate well but:
When I hit the Spindle button to switch the spindle on (I have my minimum RPM set to 650) the spindle comes on and I have S 650 in the spindle small window and it cannot be adjusted (see picture). The spindle is running but it cant be switched off with the same button or the speed cant be changed no matter what, the only way how to switch the spindle off is by switching the whole VFD off. Also the RPM is not showing at all there is still 0 even the spindle is spinning. I found simmilar threads for this on the forum, i followed the setting, but now i stucked can please anyone help? I want be able to see RPM of the spindle and also be able to swith it on and off with mach3 so it starts with the job by it self. Thank you very much in advance. Please see my settings attached.
