Emnesto: Yeah, that's a common thickness. Some things to consider (about the thickness): - To get the surface flat to the movement of the spindle, you'll surface it, typically with a "fly cutter" or surfacing bit. Amana makes a couple that are useful for this grade of CNC machine. - After you've use...

Yes, if your settings are locked, then it becomes "difficult" to make the needed changes. Just for fun, if you want your spindle to go to 36000 RPM, change this from the post you cited: "PD072- Higher Analog Frequency-- Make sure this is set to 400hz for all the spindles." Change that to 600Hz if yo...

Jim:

Yup, you can see the FA, FB and FC contacts; those are the ones.
Just be sure you know which is the common, NO and NC contacts.

Just change the parameter as mentioned above, and it "should just work".

Rando.

Well, you're obviously not paying too close attention, or are too....whatever....to dig up the manual. :roll: Assuming you have a unit based on this manual: http://www.jinlantrade.com/ebay/invertermanual.pdf (I tried attaching it, but the forum said it was too large) You need to change the PD052 par...

Jim: Can you get the me the specific model number for the VFD? Or better yet, a link to a downloadable manual? I did a similar thing, with a fail-safe relay for the otherwise manually-switched 12V spindle coolant pump motor. It ended up being pretty easy to implement, as the VFD produced a 10VDC (?)...

Go back to the old location?

(sorry, couldn't resist)

You know the drill: check all connections; check the fuse; check you have power.....the call support if you still have problems.

Paul: To include the bitmap among text, I typically break the text up into two parts, position them separately with the bit in position among them. If they are to be fit along a curve, I make two layers, copy the curve and the second part of the text to the second layer, then fit the first and secon...

Pandmgetaways: Everything still plugged in? If you swap the X and Y axis cables, does the no-movement problem change to the other axis? Could be a loose connector, a torn wire (if it REALLY went too far), or a blown driver board. Either way, your next steps are likely to involve giving Next Wave cus...

Shaolin357: You might have mistyped your email address during registration...happens to the best of us ;) . Have you received any other emails from Next Wave? I'd give their customer support people a call during their normal business hours...they've been very helpful with that kind of stuff when it'...

Assuming it's too shallow over the entire sign, you can set the Z-height a small amount MORE than it is. So, assuming you touched-off on the material top surface, just jog to some place with a positive-value Z, say Z1.0. Then manually change the Z value to Z1.010 for ten thousandths, etc. By setting...
