Greetings all; Which brings up another possibility to control it. But I've not yet discovered an "rj" connector. I've a whole bag of full duplex, or half duplex, ttl to rs485 gismo's as they sell for less than $2 on fleabay.
Does anyone have a list of common terminal names it this is brought out on a terminal strip? I see in the vfd docs, where d160 can be the address of 01-254, and d161 can spec the baud rate up to 38 kilobaud, and d162 controls how it handles com errors. But zero data on what sort of data is needed to control it. Do we have a driver, prefereably half-duplex where the return value might be the vfd's own tach output so I can get something to display in axis? I see this motor has a metal disk about an inch in diameter, presumably to throw off leakage, located about 10 mm above the er11 threads. Could this be used to setup a 1 or 2 pulse per rev tach signal without throwing it out of balance, say with a 2 narrow bands of flat black paint read by a non-contact IR circuit? If so, what is its name? Is this another name for modbus? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
