SRO: Spindle speed adjust: During the operating process, the S value already set, and need

to adjust the current spindle speed, then we can adjust SRO value to realize it :

Current Speed S#=setting S*SRO.

SRJ:speed adjust manually

During the operating process,as the manual speed already set,and we need to adjust the

current speed,and impossible to fix the value during it is working,then we can revise the SRJ

value to realize it.

Current manual speed FS#=Setting manual speed*SRJ.

F:Feedingspeed,the unit is mm/min.For example F=200,means every minute feeding

2000mm.

S: Spindle Speed. Unit is rad/min.For example S=20000,means 20000 revolution/Minute.

Wiring warning, the IO input terminal of this equipment support the

equipment with source switch (such as Inductive proximity switch.)When using

such kind of switch, attention please: avoid the +terminal and –terminal of

power supply to connect with GND.This equipment’s analogy quantity

output terminal of spindlecontrolalos have a certain load capacity. Please avoid

this terminal connect with GND.in case that the interior components and parts be

brokendown.

Operation warning, Please do the security measures well when

connecting with the machine tools.The ESTOP, limit and other things must be

perfected.When comes across the emergancy, please press the ESTOP key at once

or cut off the power directly, thus avoiding the equipment damage and casualty.

High voltage danger, the primary device is 18-32VDC power

supply.Voltage equipment.Pls pay attention to the electricity, safety when conducting

Chapter 2. Connection

2.1 Device Power supply Solution

The power supply solution in the field of the Industrial automation is always very

complicated,there is a lot of the GND,now we descript the structure of the power supply as below:

The power supply structure as the Figure 2-1,main power supply input and MPG module and

stepper control output module are common GND,Limited and Estop input module and Spindle

speed adjust M3/M8/M1 module are common GND,between main power supply and output

module there are photoelectric isolation.The inputs of limited switch and Estop and so on are

Common anode, inside of the device, there is +12VDC as common+,no need to connect external

power supply. Based on the reference of output GND interface, output a 0-10V adjustable voltage

to adjust the the spindle speed,M3/M8/M10 digital output interface is open-GND. If connect an

external relay,need to output GND to refer to,and give the relay an external power supply.

As the Figure 2-2 showed,the connection of the controller includes USB connection

interface, MPG interface, Stepper/Servo control output interface, spindle control output interface,

Estop and limited switch and tool setting input interface and so on. Now we descript them in

details as below.

2.2.1 Stepper motor control interface

As Figure 2-2 showed,No.1 terminal block is 6 axis stepper driver control output interface,

from left to right,there are X,Y,Z,A,,B,C 6 axis output, it’s common anode,the cable connection for

each axis is COM+/CP-/DIR-, COM is common+ ,CP is Pulse-, DIR is direction-.Connection

connection as the Figure 2-5.External power supply need to accord with the relay specification,the

internal optocoupler GND open circuit only can absorb less than 50mA current,if relay absorb the

current over 50mA,pls add current amplifier. In the Figure connect with OUT3,the others similar.

We define the interface from left are: INDS(spindle speed feedback input), VSO(0-10V

adjustable speed output), M3(Spindle run switch), GND1(Output GND).

Take Nowforeuer inverter as the example. Spindle control output and the inverter connection

showed as Figure 2-7.If ACM and DCM are closed,only need to connect one port.

If need the Mach 3 to show the real in time spindle speed,just fix one hall device,every

revolution send one pulse between INDS and GND1,pulse voltage is 5V-10V.

VSO real output voltage=10V*s spindle setting speed/max spindle speed.Forexample,if max

spindle speed is 24000,current spindle speed is S=18000,so the VSO output

voltage=10*18000/24000=7.5V.

Max. spindle speed setting ports as showed sa Figure 2-8,open it from Pulley from Menu

Chapter 5. Using of software

5.1 Set Machine Coordinate system

Firstly Open the software,as the drawing 5-1 shows,at this time,the software can operate the

machine movements,but before the setting machine coordinate system,there is no connection

between the software and machine.So first step is to set the machine coordinate system.

Figure5-1. Main Screen of mach3

、

1 Set the machine original position switch

As our request,some machine set the original point at the coordinate positive direction,some

machines set the original point at the coordinate negative direction.Mach 3 can search out the

machine original point direction by the software setting.As the pic 5-2 shows,open Homing on the

config menu.Then as pic 5-3 shows.On this page,Home Neg is for searching for the machine

orginal point direction, × means searching original point at negative direction; √ means searching

original points at the positive direction.As the pincture 5-3 shows,X axis’s original position is at

the negative direction,Y and Z’s original points are at the positive direction.

Chapter5 Using of software

Manual of NVUM_SP

As Figure 5-3 shows,this page also can set machine soft limit points,Soft Max is positive

direction soft limited points,soft Min is negative direction soft limited points.The soft limited

points values is according the references to the machine coordinate system,so as this example

shows,Y and Z axis’s max value is 0,all the effective coordinate data is less than 0.As the Figure

shows,according to our current request,we set our XYZ axis soft limited points area as [0,270]

[-390,0] [-100,0].

As Figure 5-4 shows,press REF ALL HOME at main display page,then XYZ A4 start to

search for the original points,if you need more axis’s operation,edit macro command,or press

Alt+7 into Diagnostics display page,you can search original point for every axis. Diagnostics

5.2 Set workpiece coordinate system

Because every working material is hold in different position on the machine,we need to set

Chapter5 Using of software

one or more workpiece coordinate system.

、

1

Move to current working piece 0 point

Firstly hold down the material,use keyboard or pendant to move tool tip at the 0 point,so this

0 point is the working piece 0 point,it related with the working G code file,so the user must be very

familiar to his own working G code.As our example shows,the 0 point is on the center of the

working piece surface,so we just move the tool tip to this position.

2 clear Coordinate

As 5-5 shows,press Zero button on each axis, then clear to 0 for each axis.After operation,the
