Any plan to bring those in?

Kind regards/Stefan

On transit to EuSurplus (limited quantities):

7i76EU
7i76U
7i84U

we now have a reasonable stock on most of the common boards.

Please try this configuration to orient with servo step/dir, it works for me.

thank you, good to know

I’m using the QTDragon_HD UI and Probe Basic with a 3D probe.  Hopefully this may lead you to the Ah ha moment.  All values are in inches.These are the settings I have in my .ini, .hal, and qtdragon_hd.pref files..ini file

[PROBE]
# pick basic probe or versa probe or remove for none
#USE_PROBE = versaprobe
USE_PROBE = basicprobe.hal file

#3D Probe debounce & Tool-Setter-Debounce
setp debounce.2.delay 100 #this sets the delay 100 iterations of the servo-thread
addf debounce.2 servo-thread

Note that the 7I76EU does require an up-to-date LinuxCNC version, at least 2.9.3

 

The image below is where I'm getting the idea to use Stepgen to convert my fanuc encoder data to AB quadrature for outputting to the drives, but I could use some insight as to whether or not it will function or if I'm missing some important details.. Does anyone know?  



Within the HAL, is there a possibility of connecting the fanuc encoder data position output to the 'position in' port of Stepgen as it runs in quadrature output mode, to then output the quadrature pulses to my AB Ultra3000 drives to provide the position feedback to them? Or is there some major flaw in this concept.. 

Thanks

 

Hallo, Mesa bietet das 7i76eu als Ersatz für das normale an.
store.mesanet.com/index.php?route=produc...83_85&product_id=399

Kann ich es genauso verwenden wie das normale 7i76?

vielen Dank im Voraus

Thanks! I just want to prevent current through the spindle coils. I found parameters in the VFD to suppress low frequencies, so I think its solved. Thanks for your hints!

An analog circuit with a 0V negative reference cannot swing all the way down to 0V
so the 45 mV 0 level is expected. Also linearity of the output should be better than 1%.

Normally the 0 level is not too important as the spindle enable should be false so the
drive is disabled at that point. If you want to improve the accuracy, you can use the
lincurve component, but note that spindle speed accuracy is not terribly important
for most applications.

Well, my tests yesterday showed tiny problems with the frequency. If I set the output to zero/stop, the voltage at TB4, Pin 2 Spindle Out is 0,045V and the VFD shows 1,56 Hz. The Input voltage at Pin 3 is 9,99V.
Next inaccuracy is frequency setting at S3000 ->50Hz, output is at 2,3V and 45,8 Hz instead of 2,5V and 50Hz.

What can I do to put Pin 2 to zero Volt? Is this a problem of the 7i76e/Lcnc or do I have to calibrate my VFD?

Thanks for your help, again!

Für open loop kannst du den stepgen als position feedback verwenden. ZB:

That's been very successful! Thanks! MY spindle is turning! Just in the wrong direction but that's no problem. I can wire it up so that its CW. The next days I will check how to configure the pendant for spindle control. But today, Iam very happy that the spindle is turning!
Thanks a lot, PCW!
