sensor hookup

 

this is how it is wired..
There are 4 pins on the sensor. Hook the out pin to the printer port
pin,
hook the 5volt to a 5v source, the common pin to the printer port
pin 25 as
well as the 0vdc line of the 5volt supply your using, and for the
LED, you
hook a resistor between L and 0vdc. The value determines how
sensitive it
is. I used a 200Ohm and it seems to work fine..

I have the index-pulse ticked and the timing-pulse ticked in
the "input signals". and assigned both to pin 15.
What else do I need to do?
OT / For Sale: Multiple Solutions for Spindle Speed Control

Servo Wizard
 

For Sale:

New in original box Omron 3G3MV-C2022 VFD inverter drive.

230VAC, 3PH and rated at 3HP. The drive accepts both analog and
frequency reference signals. Using the step signal from Mach2 you can
control the spindle speed without using any intermediate processes or
hardware.

I also have a new Yaskawa with the same specifications as above drive
with the exception of it being rated at 1HP.

New in original box: Red Lion Frequency to Analog Voltage Converter +

Has an integral power supply which operates on 115VAC and will
process 0 to 10kHz frequency input and outputs analog voltage
proportional to the input frequency. Accomplishes the same task as
the drive above but it is an intermediate process. Would be a great
solution for spindle speed control for applications using an analog
only drive.

Two Analog Amplifiers new in original box: (picture in group photos)

Theae cards are for use with the PWM signal that Mach2 distributes
through the PC parallel port. Do not confuse this hardware with the
single OPT AMP circuits that have been associated with non-linear out
put from the PWM spindle speed signal. These are a professionally
engineered piece of hardware that is manufactured by a company that
has electronic components orbiting in outerspace. The cards have a
low offset and a high gain that will will facilitate a true 0 to
10VDC and can go as high as 20VDC should the application require it.
Power for the analog output requires an isolated 24VDC power supply.
When I tested the hardware Mach2 was operating at 45kHz with the PWM
base frequency set to 45Hz. (45,000 / 45 = 1000). The maximum speed
for the selected pulley ratio was set to 1,000 RPM. (1 / 1,000
= .001) Starting at 1 RPM the analog voltage output was .001 and with
each increase of 1 RPM the voltage increased by .001VDC and continued
to do so until the commanded spondle speed was 1,000 RPM
index/rpm sensor-x and z axis

 

gee I'm feeling dense....
I've set up the sensor but haven't been able to witness its
function in the readouts. I believe it's okay but do I have to re-
wire the motors/signals to conform to the XZ for lathe? Or, can I
just use XY and re-lable the Z DRO to Y to get the axes I want? In
mill the Z is the spindle axis..but in lathe the Z won't be used?

oh boy... I'm confused....
Help...

Hi Ross:

No matter, NO or NC, you just change the active low setting on the
digitize input..

Can a normally closed probe switch be used with the digitizer in Mach2?
Someone

You should be able to invert the signal if needed electronically or
electro-mechanically (relay)

Re: can not clear external E-Stop in mach2

 

We need to know how you have the wired normally open or normally closed.
The estop will need to be un-checked.

Robin,

The limit switches are also active high or low. For now, just reverse
the
state for the one that is giving you a problem. Later when you have
limits
hooked up you can change the state.

Re: can not clear external E-Stop in mach2

 

Look on the diagnostics page and note which one is triggering it. Then
either check or un-check it. If you use normally closed switches then you
need to un-check it.

Version 4.0a

Art
 

Hi All:

Version 4.0a is online. It will be moved to 4.0's slot as the new lockdown
when its tested. It is also possible to have OEM button calls to the button
functions Run, Pause, Rewind...ect so they can be hooked to an OEMInput
line.
Les Newell's Pipe version of KeyGrabber is in the relase but untested..
.We'll see how it goes. This is an extra thread which control message
passing in its own thread, so should be faster.

A box has been placed around the MDI window to aid in visability, the IJ
mode on the diags is fixed as well.

Olivier's french screens have been updated. The Rutex tuner has a port
selector. The OCX is now functioning properly from VB as well.

I have kept the changes low until it actually locks down properly, I will
then begin more major modifications as I won't have to worry about the
lockdown being too buggy. I have had very few problems with 4.0, even though
many have upgraded for the first time in a long while...

Thanks,
Art

Re: Lots of Big caps

Hi Mike:

I am getting ready to remount my drives. Can i mount a 10,000 micro-f
capacitor x 80 vdc (which i have) next to each drive (6" away) and
skip the 470 micro-f capacitor?(which i don't have) my powersupply is
52 vdc @8 amps. which essentialy keeps a large battery bank charged.
the current is leveled by a 67,000 micro-f group. the reason i am
looking at this is room issues and (the real fact) that i would
rather use things from my swollen parts box than purchase new.
I'll let the guru's answer this one...


and i would realy realy like to see mach2 able to use another
parallel port. (even if only the five input pins)
You mean other than the two it takes now?
