Well, she survived the rewire and panel fitting, also got the VFD fitted and spindle running under 0-10v and stop/start from the BOB. Surprised how quiet the motor is.

Installed the new screen-set (2010) and got that going, looks nice. Tweaked the homing speed and at 15% the homing accuracy is now +0 to -0.02mm which is far better and will leave it there for now.

Questions ---

Touch plate -
to make this work i need to connect the probe input to ground via my tool, I presume it is OK to connect the BOB 0v line to machine chassis in order to make this work with only one probe wire??

Spinde Stop -
Do we use coast-to-stop or ramp-to-stop??

Spindle acceleration -
What sort of spin-up setting is good in the VFD?
I presume this also goes in Mach3 Spindle delays?

Got to finish my bed plate now...
