  1. Re: Redid almost all electronics on 6040, except spindle/VFD, which isn't working now

    Ok, I'll try this relay.
  2. Re: Redid almost all electronics on 6040, except spindle/VFD, which isn't working now

    I just noticed in the instructions X1 needs to be shorted to com. I could have sworn I also tried active low in the pin setting with no effect. I'll try that again when I get home, although it's a...
  3. Re: Redid almost all electronics on 6040, except spindle/VFD, which isn't working now

    It should just be the X1 pin, which is the forward run. It's getting 13v. I have it connected exactly as it used to be with the Chinese electronics. Maybe 13v is overvolting it? I'm also not sure why...
  4. Redid almost all electronics on 6040, except spindle/VFD, which isn't working now

    So I changed the steppers to closed loop hybrids, put in limit and home switches, and changed to a computer water cooling system. I also got an AXBB-E controller with UCCNC. All that seems to work...

    Thank you Jim, I fixed the drive orientation and connected all the internal components. I just need to make the external connections next.

    Re: New AXBB controller

    Thank you, that worked. Sorry I had missed that part. I had downloaded UCCNC before purchasing the AXBB to check it out.

    Re: New AXBB controller

    Hey guys,

    I connected 5v only to my AXBB just to test the connection to UCCNC. I have tried on both my desktop and Microsoft Surface Pro 3 (with USB to ethernet adapter) and get the same issue on...

    Re: Planning to upgrade my 6040

    Thanks for that, I started looking at the UC300ETH based on your suggestion and it seems like a better option, so I will go with that controller. The UB1 motherboard for it looks nice but may be...

    Planning to upgrade my 6040

    I'd like to upgrade the electronics on my 6040, which is a slightly older version of the omnio X6-1500GT (so I will also be adding limit switches). I think I've narrowed it down to two options, but...

    I'm not sure if mine is supposed to be working like this, but regardless of what position the red power switch is, the fan comes on if the safety switch it out. The only way to shut it down is to...

    Thanks jyotti, the internal setting made the difference for getting the FRO to work again. It's no longer locked at 7%.

    The only issue I have with the spindle now is that it won't show RPMs. Any...

    Attached is the quick start guide. Lance responded to me with a link to it.

    My spindle will only spool up to one speed without showing any RPM and I'm getting some abnormal condition shown in the...

    I ordered mine on Aug 2, got a shipped notification on Aug 11 and it arrived Aug 12. The shipping shows it going to a different state and not being able to be delivered so I'm pretty sure they sent...

    Thanks tangeray, If I end up with a non-yoocnc machine that already includes the spindle, I'll opt for a hitachi m12 or porter cable 7310 router. The motion controller is just to run it off USB on a...

    Considering a couple of router setups

    I'm mainly planning on cutting 1.5-2mm G10 sheet and carbon fiber, but I would also like to have the option of some aluminum work. I'm in school full time for mechanical engineering and living in a...
