E-Stop cuts the power to all drives and spindle.

Meanwell only to power Acorn and NPN HomeLimit.

Re: Help... Let Me In!

No, you must know which parameters you changed by hand on the current installation.

Re: c axis control in lathe pro intercon

No postprocessor's are very good documented in fusion, they have a programming manual and a plugin in for VCS with live testing ect...

Quite easy to learn, I had no clue from Java Script before starting to build an PP for my machine.

No.

Text is longer and there are more than 11 lines with infos.

It is a preview not more, for full read, use editor.

That is the way it is.

ok, with a 12Nm Stepper and final 4.5:1 reduction you need a clutch at least with 54Nm

Re: c axis control in lathe pro intercon

C-axis with Acorn is no problem I started with Acorn before upgrade to Six

Intercon is only for 2 axis turning.

You can make the turning with Intercon and insert C-axis part by hand, or use the fusion PP I have made.
