Well I had P11 wrong.  Some dork installed my 803 upside down according to you're nice dwg.  My wiring diagrams don't have such pretty pictures.

The spindle motor is AC, the drive is a Yaskawa Varispeed 626MTIII

Can I adopt you.?

I can identify the P11, but can't see or tell which is P4.

Hi Darek
You asked:
>>Did you have M codes for high and low spindle range?<<

No
Edit: On second thought I did have to put M40 in for spindle to work.  If there was another M code, I didn't need it as the spindle would spin from 0 to 6,000.

Ashby

P.S.  Thank you and bless you my son.

So, now the X,Y,and Z encoder leads from the above are going to the breakout board & on to the Pixies.  The "To Drves" are the leads on top of the drives where I attached the ref +- from the Pixies.  Still can't understand where to put the enable and error wires from the Pixie.

You can see in the attached that I mounted a power supply from a PC and the power supply that was on top of the card cage.  I also conneted a NO mometary push button to the P7 plug on the 801 board (reset function) and left the original Estop connected.  The wiring on the BO board and Pixies is done.  Turn on the power to this cabinet and start the PC, all the LED's light up, at this point Estop and reset do nothing.  Now I need to get the drives, PLC, and spindle drive powered up.

The servo motors on this sucker are 140v 75amp, Teknix, Rutex, Geko don't go that high.  I really need to use these drives.

Some progress and a long way to go.

I downloaded a 102 page PDF manual for the PLC and 150 page PDF for the spindle drive, Servo Dynamics has put the info for the drives in the mail.
If Mach is going to tell X,Y,Z and spindle fwd,rev,speed what to do, do I need the PLC?  Seems like all that's left is coolant, I can do that with a little cube relay.

You're my main man Darek, nobody else seem to be as farmiliar with Anilam as you are.

General Mach Discussion / How do I enable drives on my Anilam. ??

I got this from Darek's post in another thread.
Quote
The drives were not wired with an enable signal. The high voltage power supply for the drives was turned on and off for that. SERVO RESET turns on the high voltage. E-STOP, OVERTRAVEL LIMITS and OUT. SVO-ON from the CNC will either keep it from enabling or shut it off while enabled.

The OUT. SVO-ON should come from your Pixie's enable now. The charge pump would also be wired here if used.

I have wiring diagrams for the control, but I'll be @#$%#$ if I can see where the enable from my Pixie's needs to go.

Ashby

Edit: I can take pix of the diagrams & post them, if that would help.

The J3 connectors supply low voltage to the drives from the small power supply to the right of the drives.

YELLOW = +15

GREEN = common

BROWN = -15v

The plug on top of the each drive has two shielded cables going to it. One is the tachometer signal from the motor and the other is the reference signal from the CNC.

The drives were not wired with an enable signal. The high voltage power supply for the drives was turned on and off for that. SERVO RESET turns on the high voltage. E-STOP, OVERTRAVEL LIMITS and OUT. SVO-ON from the CNC will either keep it from enabling or shut it off while enabled.

The OUT. SVO-ON should come from your Pixie's enable now. The charge pump would also be wired here if used.

Thanks

We should collaborate on the production of an E book.

"Mach to Anilam for Dummies"

You can be the author....................I'll be the dummy.

From the above I understand that what I was hoping the J3 connetor was about is wrong.  Now I'm struggling to figure out where the wires from the Pixies need to connect.  I'll re-read this a couple of hundred times, see if I can get it to sink in.  I'm gonna look for something labeled OUT. SVO-ON.  Then see if I can find someplace to put the Pixie ref+ and ref-.

Appreciate all your help.

Ashby

Edit: I forgot to mention that I am easily confused.
Edit: So I should put ref+,ref- from the Pixie's here?-->>>"the other is the reference signal from the CNC."

Bravo Benny

Could we have a link.  I'd love to post this in a couple of other forums.

Thanks
Ashby

Edit:  Never mind, here it is.

Brian, Thanks for the heads up.

I was worried that I had been a bad boy.  Well I am bad, but that's a different story.

DAREK

My Pixie 100's want to send, enable, ref+ and ref-.

>>IF <<this is where those signals go it would be nice if the pretty green wire was enable and the other two were plus or minus.
I've been looking at the drawings 'till I'm cross eyed, I can find those three, but I can't figure which is which.

I notice that all the jpg's in this thread are 0 kb.  I understand that there is a 4 pic limit per post.  If there is a limit about total pics I was not aware and apologize.

Ashby

Edit: 3/24  Fixed that.  Put 'em back.
