Re: Acorn Zero Voltage on Spindle Bench Test
Well after messing with it all weekend I finally decided to make some extension wires with crimped ferrules instead of trying to put my test leads directly into the molex connector. Swapped to clip style test leads on the dvm and viola it worked. I guess the grips on the test leads made it go in at ...

Re: Acorn Zero Voltage on Spindle Bench Test
I just noticed I took the picture of the Acorn with it powered off. But the multimeter picture is with it powered on and spindle bench test program running.

Re: Acorn Zero Voltage on Spindle Bench Test
Hey Keith, I’m following the manual and have tried two different digital multimeters. A Milwaukee and a Fieldpiece. I’ve tried auto and different digit combos, even millivolts. I updated Cnc12 and the wizard. Just for the heck of it reinstalled the pc tuner. As I said before it passes stress test. H...

Acorn Zero Voltage on Spindle Bench Test <resolved, leads not making contact>
My com stress test passes, but I dont get any voltage when I run the spindle bench test. I dont have anything else hooked up to the board. Any ideas? I've gone through tech bulletin 270 and all communication test pass. I have ran the PC Tuner App as well and all is green.

Re: Build Thread - Ameri Tech Slant 30 Gang Tool Lathe refit with Acorn Build
Sometimes its easier for me to draw my setup instead of just using the engineering drawing. So here is my version of how I wired the logic power and main power to Yaskawa Sigma 2. Havent started on the Durapulse wiring yet.

Re: Questions - Ameri Tech Slant 30 Gang Tool Lathe refit with Acorn Build
Thank you sir! I am back at it today. I hope to get all the wiring finalized today. I will wire it up as you suggested and see if more people chime in on the durapulse. I’m fairly new on here, should I create a new thread with the Durapulse question or just let it ride here?

See photo album link for pictures. I actually got two of these for a smoking deal. But they were stuck in the 90's and needed upgrading. The company has long been out of business. I called Leadwell and apparently these were made by another company and just put Leadwell's name on them. The Leadwell r...
