Thanks.

With the external controls like this, does it still have a minimum of 500 rpm? (I'm looking at a lathe application, and I'd like to avoid using any of the original pulleys / countershaft...

Thanks.

Just to make sure I've got this all...

(1) Analog output of C69 goes to the wiper on the pot, when tuned to 5v max output
(2) Analog ground of C69 goes to the COM pin on the pot
(3)...

I know this is an old thread, but I'm really hoping you could provide some more details of the ESS - C69 setup that you've got going. I have a spare ESS and a C6 board laying around, and I'd like to...

Unfortunately right now it's sort of in pieces, so pictures aren't likely to be a lot of good. If you have questions about specific stuff, though, I can certainly try and work you through figuring...

To be honest, I don't remember the exact details of where the markings were. The fact that I had to remove them before I could find the info makes me think that it was on the face of the motor, but I...

I know I'm a little late jumping in on this one - like 18 months or so too late - but the problem is most likely that you tried to tell HSM to give you both flood and mist cooling at the same time. ...

I was looking for some info on the linear bearings used in my router, and happened to find this old thread with Google.

What a fun few years it's been since I posted this originally!

The only...

Found this thread when I was looking for some information on BOSS 3's ... and the garage in those pictures looked awfully familiar.

Just thought I'd post up a testimonial for sdmuleman's...

IM483's are wired directly to LPT1. No breakout board.

Oddly, today I had things running very nicely ... for a while. I had a test pattern set up of 100 moves from x0 to x-1 and back. At the...

Okay, I've had a little time to work on this some more.

1. I'm using ball screws and linear bearings. Couplings are all tight.

2. Cables are the factory installed ones, and are shielded,...

Hello, all -

I have a pretty mongrelized setup at this point. It started life as a Vision 2448 combo router / engraver with dual heads and a Series II serial controller. I've pretty well hacked...

I don't really care about the HPGL capability from VPro - I can export that stuff and run HPGL from Mach3 if I really needed to, but it would be a lot simpler (and more familiar) for me to just...

Hm - just ran into another problem ... There appears to be a soft limit somewhere in the controller that prevents the second head from crashing into the gantry ... and now that the second head is...

Okay, so my first attempt at Mach3 conversion has ended in ignominious defeat.

Keeping the +5v signal from the controller and bringing step and dir in from the (new) DB25 port didn't actually...

So I've got the manual for the IM483's now, and I shouldn't have to do much to get those up and running the way I want. One thing I will have an issue with, though, is the steppers themselves: I...

The two Z axis motors are driven off the same IM483. The output from the 4th one goes to the port on my controller labled "4th Axis" so I'm pretty sure that I won't run into problems there. :)
...

Okay, thanks, lot of good info there.

I opened up the top cover of the controller, and sure enough - there's 4 IMS IM283's in there. (This machine originally appears to have been sold with a 4th...

So I picked up a Vision 2448 the other day for the low low price of zero dollars. It runs fine, works great, etc. Came with the controller (a series 2), dust collector, the computer, and Vision Pro...
