Encoder Issue

I posted last week with this issue. I also posted the report to go along with this last week when asked.

Encoder is only registering 325 max in the software and is actually running 2000 rpm.

Encoder bad?

I ordered a replacement encoder ?

Thoughts?

Auto Spindle

Running Acorn Lathe Ultimate on Lathe

When I push 100% it decreases spindle RPMs.

Since it started doing this it is also not reading my encoder correctly I. The software and reads +215 but the lathe is actually running at 2200 on it’s readout!

Thoughts?

Encoder bad?

Re: MPG (Hand Controller)- Not Working

Final Results and Outcome

I sent the Pendant in for repair. Centroid is unable to repair and has no idea why it stopped functioning.

Not very old to quit working but I guess it being used every day?

Just my luck! Out of warranty!

Re: MPG (Hand Controller)- Not Working

I have two Acorn CNC’s Both have MPG’s. One does not work on either system. One works on both! Tried changing ports, rebooted on both systems! Functions exactly the same on both. Tested with other USB devices and USB function correctly! I’m thinking the Antenna or USB connector is bad? Or the System...

Re: MPG (Hand Controller)- Not Working

Hand Controller, says Lost RF then goes to blank screen like the picture I Posted and pulses between the two. Software states it is enabled but not found. I put new Duracells, and it does the same. Tried it on my other CNC and I have the same issue. Swapped controller and no issue with the other one.

Re: MPG (Hand Controller)- Not Working

Ok, I used new Duracells and tested before installing!

I’m at a loss as it still does not work!

I flipped it to another machine and it will not work!
