This manual is a life saver, well done Etienne!
I think to allow PC control the d032 must be set to 1. [External command (PC or PLC)]

Thanks, this is exactly what I needed. I actually found what appears to be a compatible manual, from the buildyourcnc mach3 interface board.

What port and pin is your e-stop working on? Mine is connected to input 1, but I can't find any sort of datasheet that tells me what port that corresponds to.
Thanks!
Thanks for the offer, I'll take you up on it if it turns out to be the problem. I'll probably tear the machine down after I get this job out the door, and I meant to take videos the first time...
Yeah, I got the repacked nuts, but can't seem to get the backlash down. Bought them back in September though, or close to it.

I believe I climb milled this entire part, but I can't be sure. I'll check the code when I get home. I've got .012X and .004Y backlash compensation on, and I can see direction changes on the profile...
Well I'm going to chalk it up to a loose connection and maybe just moving too fast. I got the part done in aluminum, now I've got one more in 1018 and once that's done I'll be able to experiment.

I havnt got to the slot portion yet, but I will eventually be cutting one. I'm having troubles pocket milling at that feedrate where i lose steps and my circle pocket becomes an oval. I predrilled...
You mentioned you machine around 60-80 IPM, I assume that is rapids? Does 28IPM 2000RPM .075" DOC full WOC with a 4 flute 3/8" HSS endmill sound like a good recipe for 6061 aluminum? It's what...
Ran a program that has missed steps before (above the part) twice and no missed steps I can see.
It might have been as simple as a loose connection at the stepdir inputs of the driver. We'll see...
So I just switched the input plugs into the drivers for x and y, and then changed the pins in mach 3. I ran it around manually for quite a while and didn't notice any lost steps. I'm running a...
I'll give that a shot. Thanks for your help. I think this driver is still under warranty, but I would rather just have a machine that works...

I'm not running anything but mach 3 on this pc, but it is second hand from a coworker and probably has a bunch of stuff I don't need. I'll check that tonight too.
I switched the motor output plug,...
Thanks for the help

Gibs are lubed when installed. I do have mor trouble towards the ends of travel.
I'll try the windows optimization to ight. Not sure which xp version.
I was referring to 200 IPM on a single...
I've had a G0704 setting in my garage for close to 2 years, and I've had the CNC conversion on it for about 6 months or so. It's been moving, but I havn't gotten around to dialing it in. Naturally,...
Well, I just rewired the whole thing with the diagram that I had earlier, which to my eye is the same as the one Al_The_Man posted.
It's whirring along really well. I had to switch the polarity on...
Also, with it wired as it currently is, what is the point in having the dual capactiors if they're both taken out of the loop when the motor starts spinning?
Not that I can find, and I'm doubtful it would be of any use if I did.
This site seems to support what I'm saying under the "2. Capacitor Start Capacitor Run" secition.
Single Phase Induction...
For example, here are the 2 diagrams. The one with the red boxes is what I'm thinking of changing it to. The only difference is the green wire running into the terminal block was initially a black...
So, if it wired correctly as diagrammed in this post DIAGRAM how does opening the centrifugal switch cut out only the start capacitor? Wired like it is, it seems like it would cut both caps from the...
Yeah, wholesale tools gave me the option too, which is why I was leaning towards it being wired for 220. But, it doesn't appear that way.
We'll find out when I get home. This day sure is dragging...
Thanks for the reply. I'll try rewiring it tonight and see what happens.
Where the green and black wires were joined, I cut them apart so I could 100% which path the centrifugal switch is on. After cutting, spinning the motor shaft causes the black path to open and the...
I just checked, and spinning the motor shaft causes a loss of continuity across both capacitors. Is it possible the common leads of the caps are being switched off instead of just the 175uF cap?
ma1, thanks for your link, I've been using it all night. It looks like we have the same motor, but mine is wired differently than yours. Here's the nameplate and a close up of the wiring diagram on...
I'm starting to think this motor is wired for 220. Can anyone make heads or tails of this?

I think I just used a heavy pin punch, and if I remember correctly, I bent it a bit. They were a pain to remove.
As an update, the motor crapped out on me over the winter, it would run OK in low...
