    Re: 6040 cnc PRT-E1500W vfd settings.

    CHIMERA1960, I do not know how to find the translated manual that you have posted. Any possibility that you could send it to me at the email address that I have already sent to you by private...

    Re: 6040 cnc PRT-E1500W vfd settings.

    OK, so I have tried this, but did not get very far. I got to the end of step 1, where I reset the vfd to factory defaults. The readout said the word LOAD, and flashed a few other things pretty...
