Ok.....so I am trying to help a friend of mine out with setting up a Hitachi X200 VFD and the Mach3 software Via Modbus and have been going crazy trying to figure out how to do it.
I have the modbus test working where I can connect to the VFD and read coils and holding registers with no problem so the modbus communications seem to be working. My problem is trying to get the Mach3 software to map to the RUN/STOP bit and the Spindle speed register.
From what it looks like I need to use a brain to map the two together ? Am I correct on this ?
I have been working with Industrial modbus devices (PLC's, industrial touch screens......etc) for 14yrs, and have never had this mouch trouble setting up two modbus devices.
Any input would be great...thank you,
David
