Parallel Port breakout boards, motherboards, and dedicated accessories / PMDX 107 PMDX126 controlling VFD Huanyang HY03D023B not functioning with Mach3

« on: November 04, 2019, 04:51:15 PM »

Hello Everyone,

I have been chasing this for over 3 weeks now and finally see
that I need help.

PMDX 107 with PMDX126 Breakout board controlling VFD
Huanyang HY03D023B not functioning with Mach3.

1)  The VFD works to control the spindle in Manual mode
      to full RPM of 24,000
2)  When the the Jumper on the VFD is set to VI the PMDX107
      runs in Test Mode, but not a full speed and I cannot get it
      to operate with Mach3 at all....after changing and logging the
      changes to many different possibilities...

Note 1  The R3 trim pot adjuster on the PMDX107 does nothing when turning
             it when running in the test mode.  The LED blinks normally.
             Max speed during Test Mode is estimated at 50%

Note 2  I have watched many YouTube's and know I am really out of
               my relm when it comes to electronics...I can wire 220 3 phase
               all day long, but these other parameters are troubling to me.

Current VFD settings as follow below:
PD 001       1                    source of run command
PD 002       1                    source of operating freq
PD 003       400               Main Freq
PD 004       400               Base Freq
PD 005       400               Max operating Freq
PD 007       20                  Min Freq
PD 008       220               Max voltage
PD 009       15                 Intermediate voltage
PD 010        8                  Min voltage
PD 011        120             Freq Lower Limit
PD 013         0                 Factory Reset
PD 014         12              Accel Time
PD 015         12              Decel  Time
PD 044         1                 Forward
PD 072         400            Higher analog Freq
PD 073         120            Lower analog Freq
PD 141         220            Motor rated voltage
PD 142         10               Motor rated amps
PD 143          2                 Number of poles
PD 144          9999         Max RPM of Motor...motor max is 24000 but
                                            this is the highest number it will allow me to
                                            enter on this line???

In Mach3 Config Ports and pins
1) Spindle Enabled, step pin 16, dir pin 14, dir low active off, 
       step low active off, step port 1, dir port 1

2) Outputs Signals
    Output #1, Enabled, port 2, pin 17, active low on
    Output #2, Enabled, port 2, pin 16, active low on
    Output#3, Enabled, port 2 pin 14, active low on

3) Spindle Setup
     Relay Control
         Clockwise Output #3
         CCW           Output #3
     Flood Mist Control
          Mist           Output #2  Delay 0
          Flood         Output #1   Delay 0
     Motor Control
           Use spindle Motor Output checked
           PWM Control checked
           PWM Base Freq 50
           Minimun PWM 0%

Any and all assistance is Very Much Appreciated!

Best Regards,
Preston

General Discussion / PMDX126 controlling SSR for Variable Speed Router not working

« on: January 27, 2019, 01:38:09 PM »

I have my 126 controlling the turning on and off the SSR using M03, M04 and M05 commands.

The SSR will turn on/off a 100 watt light, a 1/2 hp drill or a 3/4 hp motor controlled by Mach 3.

It will not turn on the Porta Cable 75182 3.5hp electronically controlled router.

This same router and SSR worked very well with a different manufacture Motherboard.

Any ideas on what the problem may be?

Best Regards,

Preston
