Its nice to see other Mesa users on here.

Hi Clive thanks for your help !

Do you need the 10V power supply ie can't this be got from the VFD if it is only for spindle speed?

I didn't know this solution, I will take a look.

I am not sure I would connect the 24V -ve to the star Gnd. I would however connect the 5v and 24v -ve together.

Ok thanks that's a question i had in mind..

Make sure you have the switches on the 7i76 in the correct positions, W2 needs to be in the right hand position if you are using external 5v supply Also on the 5i25 W1 and W2 should be in the down position (default) when using external 5v to the 7i76) otherwise the magic smoke will appear. If you know this already then fine.

yes that is correct but thanks again, it could be useful for another reader of the post.
