I have revisited the LY-USB100 parallel adapter and found it is supposed to be usable with Win XP through to Win 10. I have it set up with XP and seems to work better with my current BOB than my...
I have not found any instructions for connecting home switches for this board New TB6600 4 axis, received the disc with the board and this bit is missing. I used a micro between GND and in2 through...
I'm running a Win7 32 bit Acer with Warp9 ESS and so far the only problem has been it stopped in the middle of a 3D cut. Seems the idiot driving it forgot to turn off the computer shut down after X...
I bought a knock off Chinese Mach3 LY-USB100 adapter. My initial test proved it to be next to useless on my old controller. Chinese black box controller.
However 2 years later I have retrieved it...
Let's go back a few steps.
What was the old computer, an XP?
I assume you are using a parallel connection on the new win7. If so was it an original factory install setup you are using? Or is it a...
I have read a lot of talk about earthing the spindle and shielding the cables. I have not experienced earthing problems, but apparently this can cause similar problems. I do know that not all Chinese...
That would be a way to go with the ESS if that is how the 3 ports work, but it is on my number 1 router, 6040.
The laser is going onto number 2 router 3040. This router is my test bed for anything I...
I have just replaced my number one router controller with a new TB6600 bob and ESS Warp 9 and wired it all up with the spindle and VFD. I had to sort through the differing advice on this forum and...
Yes that is what I have spare and intend using on my second router. This router that will have both spindle and laser fitted, with this bob, using M3 for spindle on and M4 for laser power on, M5 both...
I'm to a similar place as you and found these threads helpful. The first 2 are from CNCZone. The 3rd one I picked up somewhere else.
Need help with laser driver and TTL signal
Need help with PWM...
I had to uninstall Autocad from my system to prevent random movements. Never had another random movement. I read somewhere that Autocad is trying to take control of the parallel port, thus causing...
There is no mention of the 2 screws you are talking about in the manual that came with the VFD. The wiring diagram I have from another source has no mention of these screws either. So I have not...
Croy9000,
The HY factory video wiring the VFD has no earth connection in and no earth connection out to the spindle! They ran it that way. I tied the earth IN to the 9/ground terminal and also tied...
Elish,setting
I have my VFD HY parameter PD014 set to 12 (seconds) and in Mach3 I do NOT have the( immediate relay off delay) ticked/ checked and the Mach3 spindle general setting CW at 10 but...
I have my dwell set in Mach3 under, ports and pins, spindle set up and then general parameters, bottom middle of the drop down box. Mine is set to 10 ( which I guess is seconds ).
Wow. I thought now just swap over the controllers and I'm good to go. Spindle didn't like it. So investigated the Black Box, spaghetti junction and the VFD is wired up with earth (black) to pin 1 and...
I found myself in the position that I had this Black Box controller with little information from the Chinese supplier with a BOB no one recognised. Yes it worked but only the 4 axis. The spindle only...
Hi Mactec54,
You did have the parameters. I used the parameter set you have listed here and it worked first time. I have changed PB001 from 0 to 1 and now have spindle is on/off from Mach3 and the...
Yes, the 0-10V is a constant 10V output, not variable.
So I'm going with one relay to switch on/off and changing Pb 001=1 for external control on/off, leaving one relay for the coolant flooding. I...
Hi,
I wasn't planing on using the 0-10v speed control, but it is supposed to be variable voltage. Until checked I wouldn't rely on the specs alone! Just the on/off facility. It is a pain in the butt...
Hi
Have a "new" TB 6600 4 axis breakout board. I have it up and running with the HY VFD 2.2Kw single phase. The BOB has the 10V spindle control which I don't want to use as I prefer the pot mounted...
I have had a look at the original file location and found it has been taken down.
The zip file is too big to be uploaded and when unzipped the contents do not have the file type for CNCZone to be...
I found that only the 4 axis work through the Chinese LY-usb100 USb adapter. But as that is all I have available with my router until I build up another controller it works fine for me. The zipped...
More revelations in the journey to get this BOB operating. After consulting the idiot in the mirror it is now working on all axis and the relays click in and out while the spindle control seems to...
Finally I have some axial movement. X,Y and Z all work as expected but A only rotates in one direction regardless of any wiring or setting changes I make. I have checked all wiring and settings for...
Thank you John-100.
Cheers
This is all the info I have. I do know that the e-stop is set on pin 10 which means very little to me for connections.
Hi,
Can anyone point me to the way I should wire in my E-stop button. Nothing on the board is marked. I'm thinking between GND and in5 contact? With out it I can't clear the e-stop in MAch3.
Cheers
I suspect it is not a case of the Chinese not understanding as much as not wanting to understand. I found I could provoke a response with the same email once a week every week until they answered. I...
