    Hi
    I'm pretty new to CNC. I've made my own CNC router engraver with an Openbuilds Black Box controller.
    All good so far!
    I've just purchased an A2 series VFD (A2-8022) together with a 400Hz spindle from Vevor.
    I think I understand how to connect single phase mains to the VFD and wire up the spindle.
    However, I'm confused regarding the A2-8022 VFD config params. There are two sets of default values (3) and (6) in the manual, but with no explanation as to what (3) and (6) refer to. I'm also not sure what values to set the params to.
    Also I'm not sure what to connect from the Black Box into the VFD in order to control speed.
    If anyone has got this particular configuration working I would really appreciate your advice.
    Cheers
    Andrew

    Best to contact the VFD vendor for assistance with their product.

    We have community contributed writeups for the more popular Huanyang HY-series and YL620A series inverters here: docs:blackbox:connect-vfd [OpenBuilds Documentation]
