Re: New Project!
With an Allin1DC, you do not need the tachometers or their wires. I would keep the transformer, and either connect a Centroid CAPBRDLO rectifier assembly to the 100VAC secondary; or keep the original Chevalier rectifier assembly (bridge, cap, and resistor) likewise connected to that 100VAC secondar...

Re: New Project!
Took a new job so was put on back burner, But back on it, Finally. So going through got wired up to the actual servos. The machine has a transformer, pic attached. Not sure if it would be worth it to use. Unfortunately, in my knowledge 220v consists of 2 hot leads i assume 230v does as well but the...

Re: x-x+ jogging moves in the same direction in the x- direction <resovled>
You can use the DB25 cable with flying leads. Provided you connect the leads CORRECTLY Suggest you make a small spreadsheet or chart with the DB25 pin number and color and match it to the Acorn Function on its DB25 and then a column to where you will land those wires on the drives. To make sure you...

Re: x-x+ jogging moves in the same direction in the x- direction <resovled>
Marty and Keith are correct, those stepper drives need to be wired to the DB25 to work reliably. You need a breakout board and the drives wire to it. Here's a link to a breakout board from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073RG3GG6/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&...

Re: x-x+ jogging moves in the same direction in the x- direction <resovled>
Can you PLEASE post a picture or make and model of your drives? And or a link to its manual so we can better make a suggestion.
I gave an example of a schematic. you may NOT need an external power supply. Until we know exactly the make and model drive you are using, can't help you much more.

Keith is correct look at this schematic as an example: https://www.centroidcnc.com/dealersupport/schematics/uploads/s15207.r1.pdf If you are going to rewire the control, get a DB25 male breakout board from Amazon and start fresh. You should REALLY be posting the make and model of the drives along wi...

Re: Conecting old fanuc dc drive
Hello Marty I'm Rafael Almanzar, a while ago we talked about the use of old Fanuc drives to be able to connect them with the centroid oak control And searching on the centroid page I found the article TB 233 (REV 1) Where it explains the connection of these old drives to the oak control and the 5M ...
