"Thank you very much for the prompt response. I've already connected everything, but I can't get the spindle to run on LinuxCNC. Can you help me with the HAL code?"

Can you post your current hal/ini files?

Looks like you did not setup any spindle control in pncconf.
You need to setup both the spindle PWM and OUT4 and OUT5.

Something like:

I need to work analogic 0-10V.
I tried to config it, i can fwd and rev the spindle, but i cant control the speed.
What am i doing wrong?
Maybe some lines missing to convert the pwm to analog?

my hal file is attached

thanks

The hal file looks OK, but the ini file is needed also for a full check

Do you have 10V when measured from 7I96S pin 22 to 24?

Yes i have 10V.

Here is my INI file.

Do i need a scale?


Edit: Make sense use this?

loadrt scale count=1
addf scale.0 servo-thread
setp scale.0.gain 0.01  # Adjust this value based on your maximum RPM and VFD input requirements
net spindle-speed-scale motion.spindle-speed-out => scale.0.in
net spindle-speed-DAC scale.0.out => hm2_7i96.0.analogout0

The existing hal and ini files look correct (nothing else is needed)

The spindle is set for 2000 RPM full scale

If you enable the spindle and set the spindle speed to 1000 RPM
you should get ~+5V on P2 pin 23 (relative to P2 pin 22)

(you can do this in MDI mode with "M3 S1000")
