Hello
I have bought "new" version of the controller based on 4xTB6560AHQ .The board version is 6B6560-4v3 - the "red one":
[img]http://imageshack.us/a/img222/1761/img4465s.jpg[/img]

I have checked the pin configuration for the controller described in the thread Jeducut with TB6560 4axis cnc board - if possible and analyzed the output signals with the parallel port monitor - "parmon" software (http://www.geekhideout.com/parmon.shtml) and it seems that this driver could be suitable for my board except the enable signal for all axis, which on my board is on pin 1 of the parallel port and the provided driver controls pin 17. Setting change in the Engine On/Off (Jedicut menu: Tools/Options/Communication/Parallel Port) has no influence on the assignment of Enable signal on parallel port pins.

The pin configuration for board which I own is as follow :

1 Enable- LO active -all axis
2 Step X
3 Dir X
4 Step Y
5 Dir Y
6 Step Z
7 Dir Z
8 Step A
9 Dir A

10 limit switch X
11 limit switch Y
12 limit switch Z
13 limit switch A

14 Relay (for turn on/off eg. spindle or hot wire supply)

15 free

16 Step B - only signal/ no power unit on board - external controller fo B axe needed
17 Dir B - only signal/ no power unit on board- external controller for B axe needed

I know that I can change the electrical connections on board, but I wouldn't like to do it becouse I use this board already with other software as well.

Jerome would you mind to provide the driver version for this controller board? - I think it would be very useful for other users who like me bought this board.

Cheers
Tomasz

Hello,

I take a look at Jedicut's communication plugins and they don't use Jedicut pin settings for enable signals. What Windows version do you use ?

I ask you because in a first time I don't want to modify all plugin, but just the one you need. And working on a new plugin specifically for this cnc board is a lot of work and I don't have it to do test.

Another important thing : register your profile on this forum and indicate your location just for fun

Hello
Answering your questions:
- I'm using Windows XP Pro
- I think the CncNet_XP_TB6560.dll plugin afer the enable signal modification should wrok.
- I have registered my profile and indicated my location as you asked
Cheers

Hello,

Can you try the plugin of communication in attached ?

This plugin looks like CncNet_XP.dll but in Jedicut you can now choose your pin number for signal enable signal.

Hello
Today I have tried out the CncNet_XP.dll provided in last post, it seems that I can set now the enable output pin but the enable signal is reversed.
When I set the enable pin to 1 and manualy force it to low, using mentioned paramon program, the motors started to work, when the moving sequence has been finished the pin was not set to high.- It seems that inversion of enable signal is needed (active low).

Hello,
I try to post a new plugin on saturday.

Hi,

I invert signal in the plugin in attached. Can you test it ?

Hi Gerome,

I am setting this controller to a friend.

With your modified dll has solved the problem of reversing the bit 1 but I can not change the speeds. Always go very fast if you change the settings.

Would be solved this with an external pulse generator?

Thanks in advance

David

Hello

Sorry for the late answer.

What speed values do you set up ?
Do you uncheck "synchronize with an external timer..." ?

Without external driver you have to use very high value for speed settings.

Hello friend,

I've tried horn 500.

I'll try higher values​​.

I'm thinking about making a board with pulse adaptation as with other TB6560 "blue".

Greetings and thanks for your time.

David
