Hi All

Please excuse my lack of knowledge.
Can anyone help me? I am trying to connect my XSY-AT1 to a Gecko G540 using a relay to control the motor with MACH3.

My problem is trying to work out the correct connections on the VFD.
See attached photo. I wish to connect the outputs from the relay to For and DCM which are not labelled on the XSY-AT1. It looks like I should use X4, can someone verify if I have this correct.

Thanks in advance.
Greg

Hi Greg

In my video series here I talk about wiring this exact inverter up for external control. See episode 2 & 3. You will have to fast forward through some other bits to get to the section that might help you.

Hello

Thank you for your reply.
What a great job you have made, you have paid a lot of attention to detail, design and build quality.
You have confirmed that x4 is forward and x5 is reverse.
I wanted to be sure.
I am going to be using a Gecko G540 the XSY-AT1 and MACH3to control a Denford Easimill.
Looking forward to being able to machine my own parts when I need them.
I have a TVR Griff which needs some decent parts instead of the TVR quality ones.
I will let you know if all goes well.

In the meantime.
Kind Regards.
Greg

OK no problem. Good luck with the TVR. My friend had one years ago and it was a great car but developed issues so he sold it.

Thank you.
Regarding TVR's you do have to love to own them.

Again many thanks.
