    Setting spindle parameters twin spindle Hamai

    Hi,
    We have a number of twin spindle Hamais with AC spindle drives. One of the machines has both the right side and left side on one unit. It has the 4 button parameter buttons. The default is the parameters are listed for the right side. What combination of button pushes gets us to the left side spindle parameters. Thanks for your help. Drake

    The Spindle Selector board allows 1 amplifier to control 2 motors (MAIN and SUB) exclusively. It mounts as a daughter board on top of the spindle control board that contains the 4 button keypad.

    All parameter viewing, setting, and initialization will apply to the selected spindle. The selected spindle is controlled by the input signal at connector CND (pin1) on the Spindle Selector board. This signal is open to default to the MAIN spindle. Shorting the signal to 0V selects the SUB spindle.

    Make sure you select the spindle selector signal (preferably by a jumper lead) prior to turning on the spindle amp. Do not allow it to be switched on/off while setting parameters.
