table moving more then dro shows

Hy guys, I left my machine to sit a while and when I turned it on again, I found a problem. I wanted to move 100 mm and the table moved 130mm. This is happening on all axis. so I don't assume that it is steppers. I did check to set on steppers and I have it set to 6400 steps for rev. same as in wiza...

Re: burned OUT what about warranty ?

It appears you have an early revision Acorn without the relay board? Did you connect the VFD directly to Acorn outputs or via a relay board that you installed? Use a relay board to protect the Acorn outputs. Also make sure logic power supply Com and GND are tied together. Pictures of your setup wou...

To me, that looks like some thing external to Acorn went wrong and you'll likely burn up an other if you ...
