Gifted a HY02D223B VFD and spindle - need resources

[Funkythunder (Mike)]

Hi folks! I was gifted a HY02D223B VFD and 80mm 220v water-cooled spindle by my dad who strangely enough just happened to have one lying around his own shop. Nothing is currently connected to my Shapeoko 5 Pro (using the Carbide3d router at the moment). Can anyone point me to any resources here or elsewhere that can help me, as a newcomer to the CNC world, get up and running with this spindle? I already have the 80mm spindle mount and gas strut. Thanks so much!

Hi @Funkythunder,

for setting up the VFD there is always my old thread:

VFD Parameters (Huanyang model)

and while I’m here, two wiring snapshots . 220V Hot and Neutral wired to R and T (apparently, it would also work with R and S or S and T too), Earth connected to the VFD’s earth terminal Spindle’s aviation connecteur pin 1 to U, pin 2 to V, pin 3 to W, pin 4 to Earth terminal [VFD_wiring_mains] For control signals, I followed @Luke’s instructions religiously: FOR(ward) to DCM(ground) = forces forward rotation, i.e. the right direction. Shapeoko’s GND to ACM (ground) Shapeoko’s PWM to VI (v…

(and dozens of others, but admittedly the info is sometimes scattered here and there)

and then you need to pick up the PWM signal from the Shapeoko controller, I’m not familiar with the latest generation (warthog) but I’m sure the info is on the forum somewhere.

EDIT: maybe this

Spindle/router connector pinout

The original Carbide Control boards and the Warthog controller out 5v for the on and off of a trim router and 0-5v for a VFD/Spindle. [Screenshot_20240416_212000_Messenger]

Thanks Julien! I will review this!
