COM wire connections

Post by wagdamotta »

Hi Marty
I watched a video yesterday from you at YOUTUBE and I saw you make the connections from the power supply to the Acorn and to the E stop switch and for the power supply for the servo drive, and you connected all COM together and used a block, I have problem before with my cnc control that when I turn the power off the servo jump the position, I don't know If you remember, I send to you a video before on YOUTUBE.
But after I watched your video I when take look my connections and I saw that I not connect all the COM together like you did, from the COM of Acorn power supply you put a jump wire to the drive power supply and to the connection block.
Do you think because I not did the same may cause the problem? If yes let me know please and I change the wires because I put a switch between the power supply and the driver for me turn the power off the drive before turn the power off on Acorn board.
Thank you
Wagner Damotta

Wagner, did you ever consult with DMM about this problem?
I believe they were aware of the lurch but may have corrected it with a firmware update. But I only experience this on power up not power down.

FWIW, I've had good luck contacting DMM by email at: info@dmm-tech.com

Generally I've gotten a response in less than 24 hours, including over weekends.
