I swear, I wired it up EXACTLY like the GS20 schematic says...yes, I know it's obsolete. It worked...kind of, by forcing(before I followed the schematics) the relays..it never worked with the VCP. Everything I seem to do turns to poison...

The report shows that VFDEnable and VFDDirection outputs are forced off.

Forced off? How?

review the plc diagnostic menu instructions, sounds like you forced them off and didn't put them back to normal state.

13:49 output forced on off explanation.

That was exactly the problem...thank you. NOW, while I can jog both axis and get the spindle running, it won't run any lines... I get a communications error IIRC.

And the encoder feedback for the spindle doesn't match the S command rpm...

you have to calibrate the vfd to match the commanded.
