All, I have an HY 220v 2.2kW spindle and VFD. Can I connect my HY VFD to my Masso touch screen(Elite Forman)? I do have the VFD connection on the underside of the touch screen. I have searched and searched but found nothing.
Hey Greg,
what you mean is probably this:

That looks like what I need. Thank You. I am not he best cable maker… Do you know anyone that makes these cables?
Hey all,
| Internal Masso G3 Spindle Control Interface | Function | GX12 6-pin connector on back of Elite Masso G3 Touch (internal wire colors) | Wire color and pin on | Huanyang HY Series VFD | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| G3 | GND | pin 1 black | pin 1 black | goes to | GND |
| SC1 | 0-10 V Analog | pin 2 red | pin 2 red | goes to | VI |
| SC5 | CW | pin 3 yellow | pin 3 yellow | goes to | FOR |
| SC4 & SC6 | Common | pin 4 green | pin 4 white | goes to | DCM |
| Not connected | pin 5 white | ||||
| SC7 | CCW | pin 6 blue | pin 5 green | goes to | REV |
Notes:
CW = Motor clockwise rotation (forward)
CCW = Motor counter-clockwise rotation (reverse)
VI = Voltage input (controls spindle speed via 0–10 V analog voltage)
DCM = DC common
GND = Ground

Hey Waynec,
S7 is for counter-clockwise rotation of the spindle. That is rarely used when milling wood, soft metals or plastic, because most bits have their cutters working in clockwise rotation.
Welcome to the forum!
What is the blue wire connected to port 2 and where does it come from, I want to enable CCW rotation.
The white wire from the aviation connector in the Masso control box needs to be connected to pin 7 for CCW to work. The wire is probably tied off in one of the bundles of wire.

Thanks again, do you know off hand if I need to change any parameters in the VFD to enable CCW or just do the wiring as discussed?
Thanks, Pat
I did not have to change any parameters.
Just got it hooked up and all is working as it should, now for the RapidChange ATC tomorrow.
Thanks for your help.
Pat
