Troubleshooting non responsive machine- Mach3/Syil x4

[Doddy]

Sorry, I know more questions than answers. That board that presents the connector similar to the ESTOP connector - there's three wires - L, N and FG wired up. Is there ANYTHING else wired to that board?

This is really looking like a FrankenSyil machine. That board ("Main Board") is the primary supplies for the rest of the "normal" X4 as well as the 3-phase controller for the brushless spindle motor. None of that appears to be wired. If that's the case, it's not necessarily a bad thing but might help us understand how much of the standard Syil configuration can be ignored. Right now I'm half convinced you can lose that board.

The bob is powered from it - the red wire coming from it goes to the ‘com’ pin on bob.

I recall the guy I bought it from saying he installed a different spindle in it if that’s useful info
