Sienci Labs LongMill/LongBoard Controllers
Your new Spindle Kit is fully programmed for automatic control but also has a “Manual Override” switch which lets you run your spindle in manual mode via the VFD’s keypad controls.
If you’d like to run your spindle in manual mode, flip the “Manual Override” switch up or “1” to enable VFD Keypad controls. Then use the Run/Stop and Potentiometer dial on the front of your VFD to run your motor.
If you’d like to automatically control your spindle via g-code and your CNC machines’ LongBoard controller:
- Plug the pass-through digital-PWM converter and control cable together.
- Plug the converter into the side of the vfd
- Plug the Red/Black ferrules into the SpinPWM/GND respectively.
- Next you’ll need to configure your gSender appropriately. For more information see https://sienci.com/2022/07/21/adding-a-spindle-to-your-longmill/
