General Mach Discussion / Re: Selecting the right equipment for a Bridgeport BOSS retrofit
« on: June 03, 2016, 02:37:18 PM »
Manual operation with no system modification:
Spindle runs both directions.
Speed changer works.
Brake works.
E-stop and limits work.
Cannot get table to move at all.
Checked all fuses and power, so assume it's SMD board issues.
Have purchased another ESS (decided I didn't want to rob from my CNC Router) and also the PMDX-126.
Have not hooked either up yet, because I wanted to make sure the Bridgeport drivers were working.
At this point, I'm planning to purchase the three Leadshine DM2282 Drivers.
My question has to do with setup options of the DM2282 driver with the Sigma Stepper.
It appears to be about 5000 options to choose from (exaggeration of course), but if I can glean some knowledge from several people about settings it will relieve some of my angst about not killing a stepper or driver.
So anyone willing to chime in.
I know Royce has this setup, anyone else?
As soon as I get the drivers, I'll do the tear-out and rewire.
Since I'm Socially Insecure, it'll have to wait a little while.
