Hello guys, I’ve been a long time lurker in the forums and I can tell some of you are seriously talented in this area but all that aside I cannot find any explicit advice so I’m forced to ask what seems to have been asked 100s of times before and for that I apologise.

So, I’ve got the askpower VFD 2.2kw and I’ve got it setup nicely, and I feel like I understand all the parameters.

What I’m trying to do is get the control circuit working.

I have an XYZ carve with their AIO board that will output 0-10, so I’ve taken that and ground to the VFD, changed the parameters and I can set the spindle frequency, so far so good!

I’m struggling to get the computer to start and stop the spindle, And I feel like I’m so close. From what I’ve read here i think I need to link ground and forward. But until I understand what this is doing I daren’t do it.

Can anyone help me with this last little step?

I will be eternally grateful!

If you need links or pictures I can provide!

Jason
