hitachi wj200

I'm installing a wj200 after my huanyang blew up. I am wondering what kind of changes need to be made in linuxcnc to make it work and what are the settings on the drive that are important to a correct installation. Not much info out there for the hitachi and I'm new to working with vfd's and a little gun shy.

Hmmm. Is there any reason to use modbus? analogue works fine for me.

analogue will do it for now. I'm just getting ready to get back into this. I am planning on hooking the shield to the same ground that the motor and vfd use with no termination at the motor end.....is this best? How do I use the driver that I have read about linuxcnc already has loaded...do I need to load it or is is called up in the config files??

Awesome. How about the drive settings....should I just mimick what was done with the HY or are there more things to be concerned with. I just want to get the machine back online now and worry about the fancy stuff later...I'm just apprehensive after blowing the hy. I've got an ac reactor on the way also.

edit: also, should the motor be run in constant torque mode for a router?

Yeah I've been working through it. I didn't know how many poles the spindle was so I used 4 and it seems to be running as it should. I'll get the analogue working tomorrow.
