    Re: Checking DC Bus voltage on MagneTek drive

    Thanks for the source. I assume this was to fix a 123 alarm? Issues during spindle accel or decel? Or something else?
  2. Re: VF2 Spindle Drive Fault F, Falls out of high gear

    Well, so far a temporary band-aid to keep going is to lower the deceleration parameter (186) from 500000 to 200000. I am not sure what those values represent exactly but it slows down the time to...
  3. Re: VF2 Spindle Drive Fault F, Falls out of high gear

    Ok I got the machine up and running on the 20hp RPC I got from crowman converters. It also did not have a working screen when I got it so I got a LCD screen from Cfusion and it works! I just have...
  4. Mike, I got the converter here. Can you share...

    Mike,

    I got the converter here. Can you share what size breaker on the single phase side you are running? What gauge wire on each side too if you can recall.
  5. Re: VF2 Spindle Drive Fault F, Falls out of high gear

    Great info. It has alleviated some of the hype/paranoia about have a perfect setup to run this machine and will save me a few bucks.
  6. Re: VF2 Spindle Drive Fault F, Falls out of high gear

    That's interesting. Are you using a RPC or a PP now? When I talked to the salesman at American Rotary he was trying to sell me a 40HP ADX unit. I thought it seemed like a bit much for a machine...

    Haas VF2 on 10hp phase perfect?

    The Haas has lists a max load of 36 amps although they call the machine a "20hp". That can't be real based on the math. That matches the PT-330 from phase perfect max of 36 amps. I talked to a guy...
  8. Re: VF2 Spindle Drive Fault F, Falls out of high gear

    Thanks Mike! I guess I should change it to free spinning spindle instead of falling out of gear. So I am guessing the worst case scenario is I have have the Vector drive rebuilt? What kind of RPC...
  9. Re: VF2 Spindle Drive Fault F, Falls out of high gear

    After doing a little research I found what the internals of the gearbox look like and how the shifting is performed. The pic from someone's gearbox rebuild on a VF1 but I assume it is more or less...
  10. VF2 Spindle Drive Fault F, Falls out of high gear

    Hello all. I am new here and just acquired a 2000 Haas VF2 15/20hp vector drive machine from my employer. I am going to try to fix it and use it at home. I have to get a phase converter for the...
