Keith let me see if i understand this correctly ... from the hypertherm and other good preferred plasma cutters you get a scaled down voltage from a pair of terminals and you use this to control the THC ? So i have an Old transformer(100kg) ESAB 3 phase LPA 55 it has no outputs .. should i give up ?...

goin to shop getting the stuff and re running a shielded wire and + cap is likely to take me less time than searching and sifting through the posts based on how garbage i am and searching and sifting through posts this morning this morning . Thanks guys .. i ground the shield at the acorn end only ?

I wonder if I should look at just using one of the relays like the vac or blower to switch on off the spindle its not a big deal to reach into the cabinet and adjust the speed now and then

many people had much experience with controlling this VFD I'm finding the manual and programming very hard I need to be of 3 or 4 pages at once . 50 pages apart So after verifying the acorn is putting out the analogue signal that is scheduled using the mill bench test programme the VFD is still beha...

ok rooki error i was plugged into to to the unpowered VSD as its easier to get onto the screw heads with the meter

ok on the second try i set to 3000 then re run spindle bench test reported the voltage back as prompted but we got only 3 out of 4 the 4th voltage read 6.8 V witch as it says is not within 10% of 10V

Ok me the wizard have already had a disagreement while running the spindle voltage out put bench test my first voltage was low like.25 volt and it said "voltage low make sure max spindle is set to 3000 and start again" but my max spindle speed is like 20 000 so do i need to just set it to ...

Thanks Shawn I'm hoping to have a big day tomorrow get it running again.

So after trying an OI bot uninstaller and failing i did a windows reset .. took all afternoon but got the result i see my acorns serial number so figure I'm in good shape ...ok next challenge where do i find this wizard ?

hi guys ok read all the stuff that says please make an effort I've made an effort i searched here and a little google I expect this will be an easy fix for someone a little more PC savvy then me .. So i went down the road of installing software before plugging it then as you would expect had issue w...
