Just in case anyone else needs a hand. These parameters make my spindle go.

Here are the parameters that seem to be working. I am sure some that I left default could be tweaked.

Just want to say that I got it running using mactec54’s suggestions on the parameters and then had to tweak a few that I couldn’t seem to input the values that he suggested. It seems to be running...

I finally got it to work. It had something to do with the initial parameters. Tomorrow I will list all my parameters. The spindle is running at 23999 @ 400hz. It is drawing very little amps and...

I also switched to two junction boxes.

I will externally ground the spindle body next

I guess I have to regroup and figure out everything that I did wrong, even though it ran perfect for a year using regular #16 cable (unshielded). I am still trying to figure out how it worked for a...

If you don’t use the supplied connector, How do you connect to the motor? A picture is worth a thousand words.

Also wanted to say that the power company has been called to check my supply power. I figured why take chances with all my electronics.

Actually now I am further ahead with this no name VFD than I have ever been. I wondered why the manufacturer/distrubuter of the Huang that I started with said not to use pin 4 on the spindle Please...

I went to the post and programmed all the parameters that "mactec54" suggested. P004 and P005 could not be set to what he said (220 and 400 respectively) I don't know why so I left them at the...

Yes,
I will scan a picture when I get home.

Yes both. I tried the new motor with the old drive thinking my motor was bad but new motor still didn't fix it. Now I am trying the old motor with the new drive (XSY-AT1) but now I have to figure...

That’s what I thought June 2018, when I followed the simple programming instructions included with the VFD and it worked perfectly for exactly a year. Now nothing seems to work.

I set the parameters as MACTEC54 said to. I rewired it and even made new clamps to ground the shielding/spindle. No dice. errors right away. I swapped out the motor with a new replacement and...

How many poles does a 1,5kw spindle have?

Can you tell me what you are running with this vfd. I have no idea on how to set the parameters for a 1.5kw spindle motor.. help!

nobody??

Has anyone here used one of these VFDs and if so what ate the parameters for 400kz 1.5kw spindle motor? Thanks

so far the collets fit fine. Of course if I don't get this thing running right again it wont matter. SAE sizes are great for me.

I also have two new VFDS and replacement motor on stand by. I...

Mine are a chinese set. Since my machine isn’t meant to be precision, They work ok. This is something I always wanted to build . All hobby stuff, no production. Video in action....when it worked!...

I bought a decent set of collets online. Been using a 1/4” end mill. Seems to cut nicer than a ball end mill which really surprised me. I may try an 1/8” ball end mill. Since my machine is manual...

Thanks!

Once I get everything back together correctly and working, Is there a maximum size router bit that I should be using with a 1.5kw spindle?

Cable diameter and weight was my first concern when I was first building my machine. . The beldon cable is fairly thick even at 16awg. What is the diameter of the Ingus cable?

I found a piece of cable that I purchased when I bought the VFD/spindle. I thought that it was a bit heavy and stiff so I never used it. Luckily I found it. It is a 10’ piece of Beldon VFD cable. ...

Who makes a good one?? Tripp Lite?

I didnt think it mattered when not using a computer to operate it.

Ok thanks. I will order a few feet

Pics attached.

1 - input wiring R,T and earth ground
2- disassembled connector and ran Pin 4 to body of spindle motor Should it also be grounded to VFD? Would be an easy fix since there is a...
