    Re: New spindle problems

    So I checked and I have a D223B what do I actually do to change these settings?

    And are these the settings I need to change to change the Ramp up?

    And what should I change them to?

    Re: New spindle problems

    Do you know how I do it? I'm so confused with the Chinglish manual

    It's the standard Huanyang VFD

    Re: Spit-balling stage of 48x48(ish) wood router

    All sound good but you are really much better off with Hiwin style rails vs SBR but SBR25 is the minimum acceptable solution.

    Personally I'd go for AM882 for my drivers and ditch the nema 34's for a 3nm nema 23 that frame isn't strong enough to take advantage of the nema 34 extra torque and the 34 will just be slow.

    Re: Need more inputs, Parallel Port. Ideas

    That's pretty common it's how mine is setup share homing input pin Z and X you only need individual pins for homing on the Y axis.

    I have no Z homing switch so only need 3 inputs anyway.
