Hi Peter
After a lot of searching and reading through different forums, I came across something interesting not directly related to my components but put me on the right track. Firstly I hound with the C10 CNC4Pc BOB pins 1 14 16 17 only will give you an off/on control they dint have full motor functions. I tried pin 8 off BOB1 for the step comment to the digispeed and "SUCCESS the spindle speed will not fluctuate with axis movement. Now I'm left with the tuning of the motor in regards to the 0-10v output from the digispeed. I have set the motor tuning to 1000steps and velocity to 1450 which is nearly max.
I used 1450 as my spindle has a max speed of 14500rpm. In pulley setup i used pulley one min speed 0 max 1450 ratio 10.
The only trouble I have now is when you set the speed at max 1450 you get 10v, but when you set the speed at 725 1/2 speed you get 9v to confuse me further set the speed at 145 1/10 and I get 1v. can anyone tell me if and what Ive done wrong.
I also asked a question Earlier about Kerniel speed and what that should be set at? Or how do determine whats the correct correct speed 25kHz 35kHz 60 KHz ect.
I spent a lot of time setting up my spindle with a C10, and found the setting rather "fiddly". Pulsewidth setting will significantly affect the response, as will steps/unit, and you have to play with both to get the response you're after, and to get the "S" values scaled as you desire. In my case, I wanted the "S" values to range from 0 to 900, corresponding to 0Hz to 90Hz on my VFD. I did eventually get there, albeit with some non-linearty. But, on the days it beahves well, the error is less than 10%, and that is mostly at the very low end, where it's really not critical. In the more usual operating range (40-90 Hz), the error is typically only a few percent. Sounds to me like you may be getting a fairly linear response except at the top end, which suggests you're reaching 10V output well before an S value of 1450. You can re-scale that response by reducing the steps/unit, so the output reaches 10V at an S value just short of 1450. You'll have to determine the correct value mostly by trial and error.
