    Thanks for the fast reply Chaz!
    I didn't realise RS485 was an option. Are you running a separate cable from your PC for this?
    I'd like to just have a single cable if possible, but I'll look into it more if I can't get this working.

    I've set it up as shown in the manual with a potentiometer making a voltage divider. It works well which means I've got my VFD set up correctly to accept a -10V input.

    I don't understand how to get a 10V signal from the BOB though.

    I'm not measuring any voltage across the two "0-10V Spindle Speed Output Connector Inverter" pins.
    Do I need to feed it 10V from the VFD? Is the PWM port involved some how?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Cheers
