that's O.K. Relay turns on/off using M3/M5. i had to change active lo setting to set it correct way .

Ok Great now next step is to test on VFD.

So first set VFD PD002 = 0. We are just testing ON/OFF for now so control speed on the VFD Key pad.

Set PD001 = 1 Then Connect wires Back to Relay contacts and M3/M5 should start and Stop VFD.

DO NOT TRY Controlling speed yet.!!

that's fine, M3/M5 starts and stops spindle

Ok great.!! . . . Now we can turn to speed control. But we are not going to connect any wires yet and stay with the meter.

First make sure Spindle output is enabled in Motor outputs and setup correctly. It should be set to:
Step pin = pin14
Step Port =1
Step Low active = No tick.

Next Spindle Setup. Go to Spindle control and select:
Use Spindle motor output = Ticked
PWM Control =Ticked
PWMbase Freq = 50%
MinimumPWM = 5%

Next go to menu Config/ Spindle pulleys:
Pulley #1
Minimum Speed = 0
Maximum Speed = 24000
Ratio = 1

Now set meter to DC volts. Put Positive Probe to FIV and Negative Probe to GND on XP24. ( You will need 10V from VFD connected to 10V on XP24 but leave ACM & VI disconnected)

With Spindle off (M5) you should have 0v on meter. Check this first before doing any thing.
If Ok and 0V then type M3 S12000 in MDI and you should read a voltage around 5v try this and let me know.!

No sorry made a Mistake here.
You need 10V and ACM from VFD connected leave VI disconnected from FIV.

Still probe between FIV and GND to check Voltage coming out.
