Re: Should I be Worried? 452 error

Can you post a report? If you are running CNC11 control (With the ethernet cable, Windows machine) then upgrading should not be difficult. In fact you could fire up the NUC, load the same version of CNC11 on it, and restore your latest report and swap it in. Unless I am missing something....shouldn...

Should I be Worried? 452 error

My Atrump bed mill is about 2 years old. I have probably had 6 or so what appears to be network related events since it was new. Has been good for the last 6 months or so. I did reseat the Ethernet cable. This is the first time I got a 452 error. It happened in the middle of a cut yesterday. Should ...

Re: Digitizing to Fusion 360

I put some instructions together in PDF. Now I can remember how to do it without relearning it every time!

Re: Digitizing to Fusion 360

This was my first attempt when I was learning. It was a hole I digitized in a steel block I had - just to play with. Its in AutoCad,, but I imported it into AutoCad from Fusion 360.

Re: Digitizing to Fusion 360

I have not read the whole thread, but with much anguish I figured out how to successfully take the digitized file into AutoCad 2010 via Fusion 360. If there is interest, I can try to put together some visual instructions. Ultimately it was not hard to do. Basically I take the digitized file from CNC...

Re: Help troublshooting M400 control-RESOLVED

I found my problem. I never pulled the front panel off the controller when checking connections just the back cover.I reached in from behind and thought the 40 pin IDE connection to the motherboard felt sound. It wasn't.It was slightly lifted up on one end. Been kicking myself for my lack of thorou...

Re: VFD for dc motor

Those two don't go together that I know of... AC VFD DC MOTOR Surprisingly this is a real thing. There is at least one vendor peddling the use of an AC VFD PWM drive for DC motors. You would never use it on such a small motor like this, but the technology is easy. You have to oversize the VFD drive...

If you are actually using the Clearance Angle value to avoid obstacles, it is important to know that the lead-out could happen somewhere else.
I see exactly what you are talking about!
