    Re: Wiring Proximity switches to MX3660

    The manual seems to imply that the outputs are for running a spindle, but seeing as I'm using a hitachi router for now, I could get away with using the +10vdc for the switches if that will work. And...

    Re: Wiring Proximity switches to MX3660

    Well I spoke to George, and he said to use the +10v output on the mx3660 to power the switches. So I guess that means to use +10v for the positive wire, the grd for the negative and the input for the...
  3. Re: XZero Mach 3 / MX3660 / 281oz motors proper setup

    Thanks John, that document is a huge help. The mx4660 has a 12v out on it, but the 3660 does not. From the doc: "Each switch has a blue, black, and brown, but only 1 input per "input" on the mx3660...

    Awesome, thanks guys. I really appreciate the help. I'm scouring the house now looking for a 12v adapter I can dig up.

    Thanks Shane, that attached document in the thread there is a really handy resource. My only remaining question is what kind of power supply to use for the switches. Can I get away with just wiring...

    Re: Wiring Proximity switches to MX3660

    Thanks Shane, I appreciate the help! My mx3660 doesn't seem to have a 12v out though. I saw that the mx4660 has that, but all the mx3660 has is 3 sets of input/ground combos and a +10v, a 0-10v, and...

    Re: Wiring Proximity switches to MX3660

    figured out how the switches are mounted, but am still wondering about the power supply. Can I just chop the ends off of a 12v wall wart and wire them all to that? Then wire the remaining wire to the...

    Thanks Sparky, can't believe I missed it. I had gone back through the main forum looking for something like that. It doesn't answer all my questions and some of the image links have died, but it's...

    Re: Raptor 30 assembly

    well, started building it anyway, most of it is pretty self explanatory I guess. I hit a snag while assembling the long axis ballscrew and it's housing. the end of the ballscrew is 0.4" in diameter...
