Hello everyone, Newbie here. I have upgrading my 1F to a 220V 2.2KW spindle with a HY VFD and it works great manually using the digital display, but, I Can not get the spindle to run on RS485 via Gcode from the 1F controller via pin 13 and 14 on the breakout board. I have made all the command in…

Perry B, did you ever fix your issue? I am experiencing the same thing. I am also getting a timeout, status 0, speed NAN I can run the spindle manually with the keypad, when I put it in manual mode, so I know the spindle part is correct, just the comms are off. I select Huanyang VFD in the dropd…

That did it. I wouldn’t have though that would have made a difference, but it did. Turned out that I just wasn’t getting a good connection on that DB-25. What really did it was just pulling those mounting screws almost all the way out, pushing on the connector and verifying visually that it was a…
