Hi, I am new to this forum. I just purchased The X32 Black box controller to use on a CNC router. A basic 3 axis machine...... That seems to have been the easy part... Now its time for the electronics... Full disclosure... I am a novice at this part. I built the CNC machine to use NEMA23 motors. Is there a specific Nema23 motor that works best with the Blackbox? basic four wire connections, etc. Is there an instruction manual on how to configure/set up this controller? Things like wire positions, adjustments, etc. As I went through the forum threads, it seems I need to purchase the 24v power source also. Thank you for any help you can give me.
Ours are perfectly matched docs:blackbox-x32:connect-nema23 [OpenBuilds Documentation] and matches the wiring in documentation. Ideal electrical specs Can order form Electronics & Software - Motors - OpenBuilds Part Store Yes, docs.openbuilds.com has all the documentation you can ever need, all the products, software etc BlackBox X32 docs: docs:blackbox-x32:start [OpenBuilds Documentation] Software overview docs:software:overview [OpenBuilds Documentation] and much more Yes, please get 24V Meanwell Power Supply Bundle - going off the recommendation can affect your warranty, you want good clean power from a reputable brand PSU PSU wiring is covered under docs.openbuilds.com > BlackBox X32 > Section 3.1 docs:blackbox-x32:connect-psu [OpenBuilds Documentation]
That is great... Thank you very much. I have got the motors and power supply on order. Wil I be able to just plug the motors in as shown, plug the power up as shown and use the jog controls to operate the machine? also I have the three limit switches. Is there a diagram showing what the three wire attachment points are, such as +...- etc. ? Thanks again
Yes Yes, in the same documentation. Use the menu tree on the left (or top under Sidebar link on a phone) to peruse all the different sections. Read through it all, I can point you at specific pages with direct links, but thats not the intent of the documentation meant to be read as a whole
Thanks Yes, I found that info. Sorry, I got ahead of myself.... I will read everything I can while waiting for my order. Great help, Thanks again
I received my 24V Meanwell Power Supply & PowerCase Bundle. Is there a pdf or video on assembly? The black box part has three wires, white, black and green, that I assume these need to be hooked into the V-, V+ and one of the last three unmarked screws. Is there a wiring diagram for these connections? Thank you.
All documents are found here. start [OpenBuilds Documentation] For the power case v1.9 this is the guide docs:powercase-v1.9:start [OpenBuilds Documentation]
