Re: Brand new precision Matthews 940 V conversion

If I didn’t just build my own 940 I would jump on that deal.
You’re practically giving it away.
Hope someone bites.

Re: New Build: SYIL X4 CNC Mill, Clearpath SDSK, C86ACCP & Centroid Acorn

Yes, I did do that. I disconnected the Molex connections to the C86 board for the Y and Z motors and then set all axes on the C86 to OFF as well as the unused A axis I plan to individually check each axis this way and see what happens. I put in an email request to Arturo Duncan as well Another thoug...

Re: New Build: SYIL X4 CNC Mill, Clearpath SDSK, C86ACCP & Centroid Acorn

I checked and this doesn't appear to be the problem. I disabled all the axes except the X axis and it does show a green light on the motor and the C86ACCP but even if I move the x axis a tenth of a thousandth there is the 2000ms delay a the CNC12 screen shows a drive Fault and the motor show Amber w...

Re: New Build: SYIL X4 CNC Mill, Clearpath SDSK, C86ACCP & Centroid Acorn

I just installed my C86ACCP and am experiencing the exact same scenario . Motors jog for a second or two after a reset and then a drive Fault appears on the screen of CNC12 but I noticed that there was no green led on the C86ACCP BOARD and no fault leds lit for the Drive connections. I'm using Molex...

Re: Acorn + Clearpath success stories?

Thanks for dissecting the pictures. The latest schematic showed 3 resistors per axis and in my "many permutations " I removed the enable resistors and the unused axis which I had placed for future use and still had no movement . I too am considering a move to the C86ACCP board but the syst...

Re: Acorn + Clearpath success stories?

Returning from doing some homework. Sorry for the pregnant pause since February 25,2021 but Life gets in the Way. I was finally able to ?reliably and repeatedly? Fault the Z axis drive . I discovered that if I repeatedly and rapidly just ran the Z axis up and down with the MPG that I could recreate ...

Re: Acorn + Clearpath success stories?

Thank you. I think that your assessment meshes with what John at Teknic said when I spoke with him this after noon. I don't have twisted pair cables but have ordered them as well as resistors. I'll be checking ALL connections and take fresh photos to share. I am still not updated to version 4.5 tryi...
