If 1111.nc is loaded and you replace this file with a new version 1111.nc just hit cycle start.

No need to load it again.

If the new job with same name is placed in the same location as the current job, CNC12 will execute the new job.

I do not think the driver accepts 0-10V for rpm control from Acorn. A CNC with only spindle on/off is not the best idea. Also, If you want to use rigid tapping, feed/rev an encoder 1:1 on the spindle is required. For the size of this lathe, a 1500W AC Servo with 0-3000 rpm would be a better choice. ...

They work, there are lot of low buck conversions with these, but I think 340$ for the other parts is too much.

I would use a JMC or Leadshine servo and make the adaption my self.

I would agree with the 3 phase and vfd normally being cheaper, however not in this case. The link is to a servo motor with a controler and timing gears and belt for $444.00 that will bolt right up to my machine. I dont think I can beat that price, unless I buy the cheapest chinese motor I can find,...

Why do you want to import dxf if you have the model in fusion?

Postprocessor for Centroid in fusion is very good.

Uwe

E stop is input 8 by default, there you can switch the button from red to green.

Uwe

You must set in the Wizard if e-stop is NC or NO.
