Re: The Hickory CNC controller is now available.

Seeing that the yaskawa sgd7s drives are supported, does this mean the sgdv drives with the eathercat option module OCA01A would also be supported. Also where would I find the hickory quick start quite.
Thanks

yaskawa and optic direct

I have been running my mill for over a year now with mpu11 and centroid software. Now I am ready for phase 2, changing dc drives to ac drives using Yaskawa Sigma 5 and Optic Direct. My question is, is there any TB's or any information on this setup yet. Also what sigma 5 sgdv servo drives work with ...

Re: I did so buy a permanent unlock

It was tough in the beginning before I knew I had to turn it off and on so many times, I must have changed wiring and reloaded software 100 times. So I would ...

mpu11 and sd drives

Is the mpu11 compatable with Centroids "SD" ac Drives. The mpu11 seems to have only 6 fiber optics while the cpu10 board uses 7. Also does the cnc11 software work with the "SD" drives. The demo copy i have does not have an ac drive menu to set up ac drives,(CNC9.hex file). Thanks...
