I’m looking for a copy the machine came with an empty cd case. But I have my license key.
Hey Forks!
I’ve come into this machine. I’ve got it moving by the motion control keypad. It looks to Open File by a laptop connected by serial port. Not for operating? I have the software jewel case...
I’m holding out to see how the commandcnc setup works for me. If I don’t like I’ll message again. I’m going to do a comparison. Sheet time, cut quality, and consumable wear.
I suppose you can disconnect the 501a board inside and connect in the Ess in to the drivers. A driver is pretty much simply controlled by step dir enable signals. I was actually trying to do the...
Anyone have a spare? I have an TM 3 I'm building back to life without any controls. I would like to stay with TM.
I just use usb wireless Logitech K400 keyboards on all my machines.
Hey how are you liking the new Flashcut verse old 401A?
I have the TM2 as well. I wear out the pinions on the y axis quick too. I was going to do the same as you mentioned and put new racks on the...
Did you connect anything to the 2 pin connector (-/+TTL/PWM) which didn't include the plug with purchase? So Sxx could control intensity.
I know that the yellow(TTL) shorted to ground (-) will shut...
All my servos have quadrature encoders 2500ppr/10000cpr.
Should be .036 degree resolution.
The spindle runs 2500rpm max.
I calculate 416,667pps
Axis are the same type directly coupled to a 5mm...
ThX OlfCNC.
I did compare them both. Hard decision but finally ordered the ESS and MB3. ESS won the decision over because it handles the higher pulse rate so I can turn the spindle electronic gear...
The patch will not work with V5.0 via TM Tech. I upgraded to V9 which patch is preinstalled.
Really an USA Manufactured controller? I didn't know there was such thing.
Nice CNCdrive but I need 5 pul dir outputs.
I see alot from ESS and WARP9 has a great looking forum info themselves! I'm...
Did you ever get the limit disabled during homing procedure?
I'm set on fail for this. I have got with cdxhctech. Its not able to run a spindle via step/dir. Ports are locked in the Plug-in. Swapaxis(6,4) macro doesn't work either because of. I will be...
Looks like another issue hit me in settings. I have currently got my Vfd spindle running fine with analog 0-10v. I run another spindle this one under a different PROFILE and setting differ using a...
OK. I figured how to fix my issue. I made a macro. M202 Activatesignal(OUTPUT3). Then went to General Config. to initialzation string added m202 and clicked ALL RESETS. Now Output #3 comes on/off on...
The enable settings in Mach3 output conf. does not turn off the card output when the estop is pushed. Can a macro or brain be writen to make a mach3 "output" come on/off with the estop or mach3...
Yes it does appear so. After several days trying different settings and macro edits. The best= I've adjusted the debounce from 5 to 2. Even though this a mm setting and I run in inches. Their setting...
I have upgraded my breakout board with a USB MK6-V motion card. I'm having an issue with the enables outputs from Mach3. My gantry mill servo drives are staying enabled. I'm using outputs 3 and 4 for...
I have upgraded my breakout board with a USB MK6-V motion card. I'm having an issue that my dual driven gantry Y/A axis drives are not homing together like they were. I have them jogging and homing...
Has anyone been able to install the add-on driver / .gm post processor on TM CAD V5.0 rev12? The instructions show "install driver" in machine settings. But V5 doesn't have the button. I've tried to...
This is what I think you need. Do you have the manual?
Yes I can get you the file tonight probably. Yes that is needed.
Direct drive worked good. With 2500 ppr I have plenty on resolution. My motors don’t even warm up. With my setup 2500rpm motor they only run about 700rpm at rapid. 200 ipm rapid travel which has been...
Oh OK I see now... TX very much! I was able to do what I was wanting in the 3d Cam with the pattern function. I will go back and redo in the 2d Cad just to learn it better. TX
I have a project requiring manufacturing identical parts. I have the contours and points done. But how can I array/pattern them so I can have them nested on a single material and machine 50 at a time?
If you are still looking for it let me know.
Hello,
I have incorrect speeds to my vfd spindle coming from Mach3. I'm using a DDMMv2.1 BOB with the spindle analog 0-10v converter onboard. I've checked the voltage to the VFD and the speeds are...
For now i have connected each servo drive/VFD errors through N/O outputs to one input to the BOB/mach3. I've planned to take the servo spindle error out to a different input. Because when I don't...
