    New Spindle drive Boxford V190 VMC

    Happy with my old Boxford 190VMC, but would like to do some tapping on it.
    at present cant reverse spindle the set up is as follows.
    Spindle drive is EVD534-E LENZE the BOB is hooked up to DIYCNC Spindle V4 board, not sure what the motor is, assume its the original from boxford 450w one.
    the wiring on bob is setup for reversing but when you input M3 S whatever, spindle turn on CW, when input M4 S whatever, spindle stops and starts same way CW, does not reverse.
    Is there a way to enable spindle reversing on above setup? or do I need to buy a new Spindle Kit? ie spindle drive + control board + spindle motor.

    Yes I did see that, but the relays on the spindle v4 board have no wires going into them. and when I put a volt meter on them only one relay has voltage on it.
    the relays are not wired up.

    As the LENZE has no stop/ccw or stop/cw input do I just rout 2 wires from the motor through the relays?
    if so can someone do me a sketch of the wiring pls.

    Just like the FWD direction it has a Relay connected to S2 for reverse you need another active Relay that connects to S3

    So if you have 2 Relays on your Breakout board you need to get both working with M3 and M4 then connect to the S3 Terminal for the Reverse direction
