Does anyone have a photo of the wiring from the gx16 cable to the wj200 they could share? ---

Hey Brenden, I don’t have a photo documentation (although planned), but here you can see the WJ200-specific pins that you have to use: | Internal Masso Spindle Control Interface | Function | GX12 6-pin connector on back of Elite Masso G3 Touch (internal wire colors) | Wire color and pin on | | VFDs Hitachi WJ200 or Omron MX2 | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | G1 or G2 or G3 or G4 or G5 | GND | pin 1 black | pin 1 black | goes to | "L" | | SC1 | 0-10 V Analog | pin 2 red | pin 2 red | goes to | "O" | | SC5 | CW | pin 3 yellow | pin 3 yellow | goes to | “1 (FWD)” _(with C001 set to “00”)_ | | SC4 & SC 6 | Common | pin 4 green | pin 4 white | goes to | “L” | | Not connected | | pin 5 white | | | | | SC7 | CCW | pin 6 blue | pin 5 green | goes to | “2 (REV)” _(with C002 set to “01”)_ | ![WJ200_Manual__Selecting_sink_or_source_inputs](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/onefinitycnc/original/3X/c/9/c9f5829f6553dd4ab1ae8c3b8b3dededbeb7755e.png) ⚠ **Important: The short bar must be on “P24” and “PLC”, not on “L”!** (image on the left is correct).

Hey Brenden, the white (pin 5) is not connected: ![Screenshot 2023-04-14 103015](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/onefinitycnc/original/3X/e/4/e4e90c9a6bf0be99430f0964396c54c3f94473fd.png) Note that your cable may have different colors.

Hey Alpha1172, however the VFD you show is no Hitachi WJ200. Welcome to the forum! ---

Hmm I have the wires correct but I can’t get this to spin the spindle. It makes a beeping sound when I hit spindle ccw or cw, do you know what would cause that? ---

Hey Brenden, can’t say without more information. The settings above for the VFD are only those relevant for the function that comes from CNC controller. I would check, do you have programmed all necessary parameters inside the VFD according to the manual. Does it show an error code, then you could look it up in the VFD manual. Usually I would test it with ‘M3 S8000’ in the manual data interface.

I have every parameter correct but I can’t get the rpm up. The f001 reading which I can’t change is at 3.3. I have my spindle settings all at 400hz. Any thoughts? Is it normal to not be able to control the rpm via the display? ---

I have success with A002 being set to 002 and I can control the RPM from the vfd and have A001 set as 01 to be able to start from the Masso display, but I’m wondering why I can’t do both as 01 from the display? ---

Hey Brenden, of course you can set “A001 – Speed command source setting” to “01” – “Control terminal – The active analog input signal on analog terminals [O] or [OI] sets the output frequency”, and then, if it is wired correctly as shown above, the MASSO G3 will control the spindle speed with a g-code command like “S6000 M5”. ---

Thought I’d revisit this. It was was software, easel not exporting commands and I was on Mac so the only option at the time. Vertic, Carveco obviously fine. [Next page](https://forum.onefinitycnc.com/t/hitachi-wj200-omron-mx2-wiring-to-masso-gx12-6-pin-connector/20896.md?page=2)
