  1. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    An update. I got the Spindle up and running, it's AWESOME, quiet, powerful, smooth, I should have done this years ago.
    A Big Thank You to Mactec54 and joeavaerage, couldn't have done it without...
  2. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    Thanks again, parts ordered.
  3. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    Thank you for your patience Craig. I found the relay to order. When I look for Diodes I get a huge range of specs, and the salesman just asks me what diode I want.. Any suggestions what I should...
  4. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    Thank you, I was reading the spec sheet, and it said not for continuous on? I don't know what time duration they consider continuous. I asked the seller here in Canada and he recommended this one, ...
  5. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    My BOB outputs 12 volts.
  6. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    I wasn't using the ssr to turn the vfd on/off, I tried to use it to short the pair of control contacts to turn the spindle on/off.
    I'm not familiar with signal relays, when I searched all I came up...
  7. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    I want to get this running and I installed a POT to control speed, it's working and I can live with manual speed adjustment for now.
    The problem I have now ( and this will show my electronic...
  8. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    I have the vfd programed and was using the ssr to "short" the 2 contacts. Are you saying I should use the ssr to energize an electromagnetic contactor and use that to short the 2 contacts on the vfd?
  9. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    Craig, Thank you for the info. I can solder, but my understanding of electronics is no where near yours, I would have to study your drawing and learn, lots!
    I want to get this running and I...
  10. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    Craig, If it's easy for you I would like to see the circuit diagram.
  11. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    I hear you, but this machine has been bullet proof and runs regularly, for over 16 years. I just don't want to spend the time to redo it all, and maybe screw it up. I can turn the spindle on/off with...
  12. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    If wires are correct, and it runs backwards, can I swap 2 wires like V&W to get it to run right direction?
  13. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    Thanks, now I understand how to trigger a relay to connect FWD + DCM to turn on.
    Yes I would like speed control.
    I got it spinning, but it runs backwards. I can reprogram the VFD to allow reverse...
  14. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    Sorry for all the questions, I just don't want to blow up this new spindle.
    I got it spinning, but it runs backwards. I can reprogram the VFD to allow reverse and when I press REV, it runs forward....
  15. Re: Sound Logic PC-2-ROUTE-N Rev 1.3… Help!

    Wow, no response. I have run the same BOB for years, no problems, but now I want to do the same thing, control a VFD & spindle. From pics I found online, a plug goes on the "6 pins" and connects to...
  16. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    Can the shield clamp at the spindle end be clamped to the body of the spindle?
  17. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    I think I found the answer here.

  18. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    I finally got the cable from IGUS, they don't move fast.
    What is the best way to deal with the shield on the cable?
    Just end it not connected, connect to ground wire, connect one end only or both...
  19. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    Thank You Thank You!
    I am at the wiring stage, but I can get it programed and ready, it won't take long to install the cable to the spindle when it gets here, hopefully tomorrow.
    I owe you big...
  20. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    "I have all the Parameters that you will need to set."
    ok, so can you list them for me?
  21. Re: HY04D023B & G-Penny 3.2 kw spindle setup?

    I have read that these come from the factory with the input set at 50Hz and I should change it to 60Hz before operating the spindle.
    pd003 Main Frequency is set at 400, pd004 Base Frequency is set...

    Thanks Mactec54, and Joeavaerage, one last (maybe) question.
