Anderson make nice machines. This one look like its new. How have you incorporated the "V" drill bank. I converted an SCM pod and rail cabinet machine to Centroid Oak. It had Yaskawa servos so it wasn't so difficult. I wired it so that I can use the drills in the "V" drill bank i...

Thanks for your diagnostic suggestion. Once I had the other WMPG-4 connected, it controlled both the machine and the DRO consistently and precisely. Guess I need a new WMPG-4 pendant.

Happy New Year

The schematics show the TCH_RX 210721 board powered by the same power supply as the Acorn board and the THC_TX_200921 powered by the supplied Meanwell PS. I had planned on po...

Thank you for that suggestion. The answer to my question was there on page 198.

Interesting!

If #150 = #4120, what is or where is #4120.

Is #4120 just a parking space for a variable?
