Hello All... Has anybody done this before ? Here is my situation .... I recently bought a 400W BLDC Spindle motor that has a built in encoder with the motor.... It also came with a spindle controller drive that is 3 ph (UVW) to the motor and receives the quadrature signals A /A, B /B, C /C phase sig...

Thanks for your reply.... I think you must have "misunderstood" or I improperly explained my connections in the last post..... If you re-read paragraph one of the post, I stated that i would be removing the wire "OF THE POT" from the the controller's +5VDC connection on the BLDC ...

Hey guys .... Check out Teknic's Clearpath SDSK or SDHP series servo motors also .... The are compact, strong, and can take STEP and Direction or PWM input signals to the "on board controller card".... They also include a really slick tuning software program the allows you to plug the moto...

Here is another thought i had .... If I disconnect the +5VDC feed coming from the controller and hook that "Pot" wire to Acorns VOUT from the analog output port, this would drive the voltage thru the "pot" acting a variable resistor but giving the signal to the drive controller f...

Thanks for your reply.... No manual came with this system ( as usual) but the website says it can be run by Mach3 system .... I figure that means analog 0-10vdc or could they be be referring to PWM connections.... there is PWM connections on this controller. They say to remove the "pot" if...

Hello all... I recently purchased a 400W BLDC ER16 Spindle motor and controller on Ebay and I would like to know about making the connections from my CNC12 Acorn board to this spindle controller... Question #1 .... 0-10V DC analog output from Acorn is pretty straight forward but the Chinese controll...
