Re: Teknic Eclipse servo wiring
Yup, they are 5V and you can wire them to the DB25. You can also wire the newer Clearpath servos the the DB25 with 5V.

Re: Losing connection with open loop steppers. <resolved >
This is the only option for me in Germany 🤣 Uwe Yes Uwe, I'm jealous for that and your metric system. We also have 3 phase power in every room! :D Oh, that’s just great, why don’t you just kick me when I’m down? :mrgreen: It’s hard to find 3 phase here, some of the older industrial parks in my area...

Re: AcornSix accuracy issues.
Those stepper drives and 99% of every other STEPPER drive needs to be wired to H14 and H13. The open collector outputs are for servo drives. Wiring stepper drives to AcornSix H1, H2 and H3 connectors is asking for missed steps. I'm sure your drive manual states they work on open collector outputs bu...

Re: Losing connection with open loop steppers. <resolved >
The entire system can run off 220v. Acorn power supply, PC, VFD, etc. Anytime you have more than one power supply tie the negative outputs (common) together. Running everything on 220 makes wiring much easier and saves energy. :D This is the only option for me in Germany 🤣 Uwe Yes Uwe, I'm jealous ...

Re: Centroid Oak with Rexroth IndraDrive M servo drives
Thank you, when he gets the machine powered up I'll check the drive firmware against the table in the manual that you referenced.

Centroid Oak with Rexroth IndraDrive M servo drives
I did a search on the forum for Rexroth drives and one member started a topic about wiring them to an Oak controller. He never followed up his posts with any results. I have a possible retrofit of a Weeke BHP200 5X12 CNC router with two Rexroth IndraDrive M servo drives on the X and Z axis and a Rex...

Re: Rough Motion on Circular Toolpaths
If you have the ProTuner software and the RS-232 cable you can manually tune the drive for better performance. The procedure is in the manual.

Re: Tool path starting point
The easiest method in my opinion for setting Z reference is to set it the same as Z home. Assuming you have home switches AND a repeatable home position. This way every time you home the machine it sets Z reference to that position. Set parameter 3 to 2 for this. I don’t know if this is the preferre...

Re: Tool path starting point
You can set Z0 to the top of your material or the top of your spoilboard. It works either way but you have to set it the same in both Vcarve as well as the machine when you setup your WCS zero references for x, y and z axis.
