How do you set the amount an axis moves away from the home switch after it hits it when referencing as it is still activating the switch and throwing an estop.Thanks Chris.

General Mach Discussion / Need help wiring a Keiling spindle and VFD

« on: April 12, 2011, 06:19:51 AM »

Hi guys,i have been going round in circles for weeks trying to get information from John about his products!I first contacted him weeks ago about weather i needed the VFD to run the 2200 spindle or was it just a normal 240v motor,and his reply was (240 volt)so i went ahead and ordered the spindle on its own as i would add the variable speed unit later.After several emails back and forth to john i finally found out that the spindle will not work without the VFD unit,so i ordered it and waited anoyher couple of weeks for it to arrive in Australia and now i still cant find out how to wire it up but now he tells me i need a C11 BOB to run it and my control box has a C10.Can anyone please help me with this as i dont think this is the answer either,somhow it has to get 240v from mains power to run it.Thanks Chris.
