Re: Enable outputs on Acorn
When selecting the D25 connections in the wizard the behavior of the "Enable" terminals on H2 and H3 are inverted since most stepper drives are enabled by default and need a signal to disable them.Therefore these outputs are pulled low when the axis is NOT enabled. This behavior can be cha...

Re: vfd control question
1. No. This circuit removes the run signal from the VFD. 2. You could do that, but then you would want to wait a couple minutes for the VFD to completely power off every time you pressed Reset/E-stop. Power cycling the VFD with each Reset/E-stop is can be hard on the VFD and may shorten it's life. 3...

Re: Claearpat sdsk can't get to enable
Does the enable LED for that axis turn green when you enter MDI or attempt to jog the axis?

Re: Machine crashes if G30 is called twice
Since the paired axis is labeled, it can be commanded separately.
Set your G30 return points for X and B axes to match.
