In this video, I removed the old DC brush spindle control and replaced it with a KBIC-120 Control with matching SI-5 Signal Isolator.
The Signal Isolator is REQUIRED to be used with Acorn and accepts the 0-10VDC input.
I go through the removal, installation, connection and calibration using the CNC software.
Hope it helps those wanting to control their DC brush spindle motors with Acorn

Re: Video: Installing a KB Electronics KBIC-120 & SI5
There was nothing other than the schematic that Franco in his video posted. Nothing about your machine in that drop box folder.
Did you watch the videos Parts 1 & 2 that Keith posted above? What version of CNC12 are you running now?
5.20 just came out.
The Acorn Installation manual discusses the 0-5VDC Spindle Analog signal and how to change it in the Wizard.
