General Mach Discussion / CS Labs CSMIO/P-A

« on: July 12, 2018, 02:48:23 PM »

Hi All

Just started a conversion using the CS LABS CSMIO/P-A controller on my Denford Senior Lathe. I am using the original Sem Servo Motors and Dc Drives. Just trying to wire up the one axis at the moment and not sure whether or not you have to supply 10v to the Analog I/0 connector or does the controller deal with this internally. There is a 10v connection point but unsure if this is necessary.
I can upload the manual or email it.

Thanks
Mick

Hi Craig

Thanks for the info. Will give it a go tomorrow. The encoders are ACCU CODER 755.
5VDC.

Cheers

Hi Craig

Happy to knock a circuit up. Have loads of electronic stuff about. I can make a circuit that has 0 to 10v adjustable. The frequency part was confusing me in your previous post.

Would I connect this to pins 4 and 5 and the Norwin Drive?

Cheers

Hi Craig

Lol yes the wife would have a fit or insist on spending the same on lotions and haircuts.

I don't think there are any issues with the servo's as they were working fine last year up until a point when I changed the membrane on the operator panel keyboard. Since then the keyboard or part of it stopped working not allowing me to do anything with the machine.     

Do like the idea of what you are saying though but you will have to go slow. Ill have a look at the Norwin wiring manual to see if I follow you.

Cheers

Hi Craig
Buying new servos is not an option. Looking for more feedback on using existing DC servos. With Cs Labs controller.

Cheers

Hi Hanermo

Thanks for your time and the info. What would your opinion be on using my existing Sem Mt30 Servos with a CS labs CSMIO-IP-a analogue controller?

Really appreciate your feedback.

Cheers
