I think the decimal is an accidental DOT!
More like 7A at least.

Hey AL,
I hate to keep asking you questions but it seems like your the only other member with an Excello 604 cnc mill. I think Im going to start another thread just on my conversion when I get a few more things done. I have started to gut the old control and Im wondering if you used your old power supply.
I was wondering if I keep everything in the main power panel or not,heres a picture of the inside of the main panel.
See this one in post #3, its sister.

Yes I used the same power supply and kept what I needed in the panel.
Mine posts #8 to #12.

Does it make a difference what the encoders count per rev is I am looking at buying either us digital e2-1000-315 or e5-1024-236-i-ddd-3 would either of these encoders work well with my servo motors 85volt 7amp and 1700rpm,with a 2 to 1 reduction.
Thanks Mike
Either of those encoder resolutions will work as long as the controller will accept the frequency at the RPM you intend running.

Larken recommend 1000 pulse encoders, so either 1000 or 1024 should work.

Thanks for all your help so far AL,I just sent you a beer I hope you like Alexander Keith's, and Im sure since it seems you are the only one on the forum that can help me out with the excello cnc I will be sending you alot more!!!!!!:cheers:
Would the AMT102 encoder from KelingInc.net. work with mach3 and my motors,they have a dip switch that can be set to 1000 ppr,do you think these will work?
Thanks Mike
I would't use those encoders, they don't get any cheaper. Get the US digital E5 or E6 differential if you want reliability, they cost about $20 bucks more per axis.
I bought a few of the AMT102 from Digikey to try, but wouldn't put them on a production machine.
Thanks for the reply Larken,
Thats all I needed to know,just trying to feel my way through this before I purchase everything I need for this conversion.
Thanks Mike
