Thanks Marty for looking at this. I was mistaken about the event that triggers these outputs.

Re: New VCP Has Got It Going
Not sure of that yet. Not all new buttons are fully integrated yet. It was included in the beta VCP release to test the vector graphic based VCP. I'm impressed so far, the icons and xml based programming allows nice customization of the interface.

New VCP Has Got It Going
Folks,
Playing around with the VCP beta build and having fun with fancy 3D icons. Check out the progress so far. I use powerpoint to create the icons, then have them converted to vector graphics using inkscape. Screen shot below. What a nice improvement. Kudos to Centroid.

Re: VFD Reset Output No Working
Folks,
Many thanks for the input. In an attempt to isolate the problem, I assigned VFDReset to an unused relay. I do not see or hear the relay pulse when coming out of fault. So I don't think the VFD has anything to do with my current situation. Report file enclosed.
Thanks,
Mike

Re: VFD Reset Output No Working
Thanks Chuck,
I have the same drive. Love it. The issue is on the Acorn side. I see/hear no evidence that the VFD Reset relay activates.

VFD Reset Output No Working
Folks, Running the mill, I programmed a output relay to get a VFD reset signal to pull the VFD out of reset. I know its just supposed to pulse the relay after clearing an E-stop, but I don't observe it working at all. Might I be missing a configuration issue? Running 4.20 on a Rev 4 board (relay bo...

Teknic Power Supply for Router
Folks,
I'm working with a school to build a router with a dual Y axis. The route is 4' x 4' gantry using 5mm lead ball screws. What kind of Teknic motors and power supply/supplies are you fellas using?
Thanks,
Mike

Re: Teknic Power Hub - No startup
Mike,
Curious. Do you happen to have a revision number on the board. I'm wondering if my board might be an older one.

Teknic Power Hub - No startup
Folks, I'm trying to get a Teknic Power Hub 4 working in my system. When I apply power, the hub does not engage the motors. I find I have to de-assert and re-assert 24V power to the hub to get the main power to engage the drives. After that, things seem stable. Does anyone else have this problem? Se...
