Hello all and thanks for taking the time to read this thread. I just built a Work Bee CNC router and having an issue with getting the VFD going. I bench tested this, over the course of a couple of days, and finally got it working great. It would start and reach 24k no problem. The settings are listed down below. After the successful bench test, I disconnected from the VFD and routed the cable, crimped new connectors, and wired it back up. Since then every time I run it, still operating from the VFD controls, not changing any settings, it alarms out. A.oA alarm, and if I don't immediately turn it back down it goes into the E.oA.A alarm. This occurs around 550 rpm every time. Pictures attached that shows the alarms, the VFD model, and Spindle information. I did go back and check the connections on the spindle side, the solders are solid and shrink wrapped. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. PD3 400 PD4 400 PD5 400 PD6 2.5 PD7 0.5 PD8 110 PD9 13 PD10 8 PD11 0 PD70 1 PD71 20 PD72 400 PD73 0 PD141 110 PD142 8 PD143 4 PD144 3000
Update: I got the spindle back up and running with some settings I found on another forum, listed below. These work with two exceptions. If I put anything in PD11 or PD73, the spindle starts as soon as I hit run, before I start adjusting the knob. From the explanation from the other forum, and the manual, PD11 is the Freq lower limit and is set to avoid running the spindle at a too low freq, and PD 73 is the lower analog freq. Again, if I put anything in either of these two settings the spindle starts as soon as I hit Run. My question now is, can I leave these at 0 if I'm going to run by manual adjustment? I plan on doing this for a while before hooking this up to my acorn board. Please review and post any comments and concerns. Thanks.
