Alright, thank you for breaking down your wiring. Precision mode is position mode using A/B phase quadrature step signals. If you were using that mode, you would need to wire it to X9 which then eliminates the encoder feedback to the Oak and would not work. So, you wired it right and must use veloci...

Hello, please post pictures and a diagram of your wiring with the flying lead cable. It seems that these drives can be configured to work in either mode whether you should use precision (position) or velocity mode depends on the wiring and the settings in the servo drive. Did you wire the Oak to the...

I would suggest trying the snubber circuit modification from this post: viewtopic.php?p=46032#p46032

If that fails, then a signal isolator might be the ticket. Some options are posted in this thread: https://centroidcncforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=10170

I think you might have to request a spec sheet from Heidenhain but from the dimensional drawing/mounting instruction sheet ( https://product.heidenhain.de/JPBC/image/HWP.DE/hlr-system/id-nr.281593-94_rod_450-456.pdf ), it is a sine output so it will need to be changed or converted. You will probably...

Glad you are up and running! Feel free to post photos of the machine and things you make.

Thanks eng199, this is a huge help, you really saved my day. Wire came loose inside the cabinet, i think i...

My centroid control PC decided to do a windows update this afternoon. After that, every time I try and start a program in CNC12 Mill, I get a 9045 Z Axis Drive Fault error. The system no longer moves. Was working all week without issue. The timing coinciding with a windows update is too suspicious....

Go to the input assignment page and click on the green circle next to your EStopOk input. It should turn red indicating that it will function as NO.


ACORN will have 8 inputs here but the picture should help you get to the right place.

There's two paths that I can see:
1. Wire to the output relays and choose the NO or NC contact depending on whether or not the enable input needs to conduct to be on.
2. Find the line in the PLC and invert the behavior.

Mine is a Chinese vfd it's a huanyang one so I don't think it has a breaker within it apparently most the Chinese stuff don't. Over time I will be replacing them when I can afford ro spend but I just wanted to get back up and running. I think you might be able to find a matching manual on the follo...
