Configuration of spindle and cooling controlling
First, you must configure the output signals. To do
this select from the menu the „Config/Ports and Pins”
position and go to the „Spindle setup” tab. In the „Relay
control” group set the Mach output signals numbers
(those are not the numbers of CSMIO/IP outputs, see
previous section about output signals configuration).
Here you can choose the OUTPUT1-6 signals. It should
be taken into account during electrical diagram
designing. Two choices are given: for the right revs (M3) and left revs (M4). We must of course uncheck
the „Disable Spindle Relays” box that means no support for the spindle switching.
In the CSMIO/IP-M 4,5 outputs are relay-type what usually facilitate connection to the inverter so it is
worth using them, of course you can also use standard 0-3 digital outputs.
In the „Flood Mist Control” group placed below, we configure in the same way the cooling switching. Here
you can also give the OUTPUT1-6 signals. If we want to use the control function of cooling switching, we
must uncheck the „Disable Flood/Mist Relays” box. Two cooling modes are possible: fog (M7) and stream
(M8). For each mode, we give the correct output signal. You can also give for both modes the same signal,
so then it will be switched with both the M7 and M8 command from the G-Code. Additionally in the „Delay”
area, you can also set the delay, which is expected after cooling switching, before the working process
begun.
In addition, important parameters are time delay settings while switching on and off the spindle. In
particular, the high-revs spindles need a little time after switching to come up to speed. In the „General
Parameters” group, we can define independently the acceleration and deceleration time for the right and
left revs.
CW Delay Spin UP
Acceleration time for right revs
CCW Delay Spin UP
Acceleration time for left revs
CW Delay Spin DOWN
Deceleration time for right revs
CCW Delay Spin DOWN
Deceleration time for left revs
The last things we configure in the „Ports and Pins” window are parameters related with controlling of the
rotational speed through the digital input of CSMIO/IP-M. In the „ModBus Spindle – use step/dir as well”
group we select the „Enabled” area, in the „Reg” box enter the 64 value, and in the „Max ADC count” –
4095.
Now you can close the configuration window „Port and Pins”, click „Apply” and „OK.”
