I’m also looking for a similar solution, i'm building a lathe with a ballscrew for both feeding manually and a controller for threading, a switch to chose between manual or threading,

The encoder...

Maybe i should have done that instead, I'll see if anyone answers,
Otherwise I'll have to sit down and learn everything (Modbus, Lua) just don't got the time for studying, even if I want to.

Or...

Hello guys I'm totally lost..
I've posted a similar thread before about this , and that was for Mach3 and got it working with a lot of help from the guys in the other thread,

As I've decided to...

I've also looked at that air pump, but the bigger version with 70l/m ACO 328 and trying to figure out if it's enough airflow/pressure to clear the chips,

I'm mostly after the chip clearing, and...

Everything works really really good!

The only problem now is when I start Mach3 I'll manually have to start the spindle at 12k rpm and manually change the S-OV to corresponding frequency for it...

I'll update with some more information soon, all the numbers and so on,

Ohh it has to be entered as hex or deci also? I'm to damn stupid... hahah [emoji23]

Of course it needs to be entered as hex.. I thought that I only needed to enter in Hz xD

The VFD shows the...

This worked like a charm! The only thing I need to understand is the speed / value to enter

(8193)

I managed to change speed by enter different numbers for example (500) in the data field...

Ok I'll take a look later.
How do I use serial monitor when the port is already busy?

My fault! 8192 is correct, I'm not paying attention.

I'm in a big hurry all the time. No time to sit down and think..

I'll check later when I'm home,

Sorry for all the confusing information xD

When I set 8291 (start address) reg num 1

Then I'll need to put 14 in the data field, and when I've checked decimal box (format) and click write, the...

Here is what happens if I put hex in the data field and click write, and then change format, (switching to deci in the checkbox)


Hex: Deci:
001A becomes 26
0011 becomes 17 ...

I can't tell for sure In what order but this is the binary code that works:

(BIT1~BIT0) 10B [start] + BIT2~BIT3 10B [fwd] + BIT4 0B [no action] = 10100 binary = 14 hex // 20 Deci

But it only...

No problem it's me and my bad English trying to explain! I'm super happy even though it doesn't seem/look like it xD

I've tried to do both hex and deci, with those numbers, and the start address...

I'll take a look later tonight, at the moment it is running as I described in a earlier post, I think this will work :)

Yeah that's true :) solutions often come when you take a brake and are away from home and not able to do anything, xD

It could be the conversion
I noticed that different calculators/converters...

I turned it off for tonight, I'll take a look tomorrow after work and see if I'm able to sort it out,

Both start/stop should be either hex or decimal,

If start is hex, then stop need to be...

Teamviewer is a software that doesn't need to be installed on the computer, you just have to download the .exe and run it,

Then you will be given a key and a station number, I'll get numbers to,...

I understand that! Not easy to trying to learn a stupid dude to get it running either xD

If you want you could look around and see over team viewer and test by your self, very simple way to...

Ahhh! Now I finally understand those numbers!

It responds to 12hex with rev rotation,

But it won't respond to 14 hex? It only responds when I send 14 as decimal

And if I send 20 decimal...

How did you came up with the decimal number 14?

Anything to do with the list?

0066H
0069H

Okay so 4-5 isn't really a true rev/stop number it has to be defined with another start number?

It seems like:

14= start cw
4=start ccw
5=stop

8 does nothing

1 instead of 14 seems to be stopping the spindle from spinning,

And it runs at lowest setting 6000rpm at "14" command

I've sent 14 decimal instead of 20 and it fires up! And now I just need the thing to stop xD

It doesn't feel right (RS+ to RS+)
And (RS- to RS-) ?

Isn't it RS+ to RS-? Arduino tx rx lines is switched?...

I can start it manually, at the moment it won't respond to the panel (buttons/pots) on the front panel because I've changed it to respond to rs485 communication

Yes, but I'm not able to connect the serial monitor to com3 because it's already in use?

Or do you mean that I use the serial monitor to transmit the data?

Didn't work either, isn't the VFD dependent of having a running frequency?

Not just the start command?

(20)
And any frequency? (Next row or same)
