Hi! Are you sure the PD009 code is intermediate frequency 1:51 ? My manual tells PD009 code is the intermediate voltage and the intermediate frequency is PD006 code (the value for which should be set 2.5 for 50Hz system and 3.0 for the 60Hz.). Suppose you meant intermediate voltage for PD009
Look at Vdf manual, mine was 6.5
Awesome!! Following your video, made installing the 2.2kw spindle to the ultimate bee a breeze. Thankyou for your contribution to the cnc community!
Amazing job! Again, you have explained something to me that I have been spending months trying to understand from manuals. Keep up the great work!
Thanks my man!
same here
Bulkman sent me to your video to try to help me get my VFD working. Can you confirm that the VFD you received is a YL620. The menu items in your video are totally different from those on my VFD. The menu shows a P00.01 while yours shows a Pd001. The menu numbers you indicate do not match up with those in the manual they provide. You indicate that Pd003 is main frequency, yet their manual indicates it is P00.00. I have never been able to get this spindle to function properly. It is looking like they are sending out crap VFDs to some customers.
I've been experimenting with the settings on my VFD, particularly the PD014 acceleration time. The reason why I started to set it differently than the suggested value is that I had some Voltage drop and I was thinking with slower acceleration, I may can avoid the ELun error. Despite adjusting it to various values like 10, 50, or 150, I'm not seeing any noticeable changes in the acceleration time. I was only able to start the spindle to 220Hz and not above. Interestingly, I was able to adjust the deceleration time without any issues. I tried PD043 to create a slow non linear ramp up, but I had no luck, it only had an effect on the deceleration. Can anyone help me, what am I missing? Could be there some another setting that might be overriding the acceleration time? I was also thinking to set PD142 to lower than 8, and other than loosing output, could it help preventing the ELun error? PD151 sounded like a solution, but no luck there also. I know I should start fixing the electricity around my workshop instead of risking melting down anything, but until Winter is on, I can't dig holes for new cabling and it would be super awesome to run my cnc even with limited power
I purchased the UltimateBee this spring 1500x1500 2.2K 220v air spindle xPRO controller. I had so many issues with the controller and getting the motors to move right I scrapped it and got a NightHawk controller. All the motors are working perfectly now, but I can not control the VFD. I have gone over all the settings and matched them up to what seemed to be the best choice and moved the jumper. Still, the spindle will not turn. I am hoping someone out there will be able to help me.
I followed all steps , but when it try to run spindle from MACH3 it always run a high speed witch is I put on PD073.
can any one help me with that
Excellent video! We'll be referring customers to check it out.
Thanks guys much appreciated!
Hello do you have by any chance, the wiring diagram from the vfd to the uc300 board?
Thanks for the video Josh, I followed this video and worked like a charm, no funny smoke :)
I'm deciding to buy software. When using the Mach3 software what type of Windows OS can I use? Windows 10 / 8.1 / 7? 32 or 64 bit? Thanks!
I run it just fine on windows 10 64bit
wow what a great easily explained video. thank u so much.
Hola me podrían pasar bien lo que tendría que poner para corriente de 220v. Desde ya muchas gracias
What should my "Rated Motor Current (PD142) set at with a 220volt 2.2KW 24000rpm Water Cooled Spindle Motor. I also don't know how many poles it has. Didn't get any paperwork with my WorkBee full kit for the spindle.
I had an issue with being able to start spindle from vfd but not my pc I've followed this video and now I can't even start it from the vfd or pc please help
I reset my vfd and done the settings from the video again...the spindle works from vfd all the way until I change settings to use controller then I can't use vfd or pc to start the spindle also I'm using candle as my gcode sender not mach3 does that matter?
Hi Guy
My name is Sebastien and i'm the developer, who, 8 years ago, decided to write his own vfd plugin because others one was simply nightmare. I then decided to offer it to the community, thninking that one or two guys may be use it. Today, seeing this video, i'm very happy to see that it has helped more than 2 or 3 guys. I spent hours developping this plugin, but it was usefull. 8 years later, seeing your video,reading comments, I realize how useful it was and i feel proud, so thank you to use this plugin and to promote it...earnt no money but gave me feeling to have been useful to the community.
No thankyou so much!! This plugin is fantastic and you really did a great job on it. There are many many people out there using it now!
Hello friend cnc. Nice video you did but i have a big problem maybe you can help me. I have a brand new kit Queebee Pro 1500x1500 with kit cncx Pro5 and a VFD for spindle 110v 2.2kw, but i follow your video nice job but seem like its not made for the cncx Pro5 cant Configure and i have Mach3 with license. My quetion is can you make a video with that kind of a kit. Nothing is moving. HELP. Thank You in advance
Hi There, I am desperately trying to find someone to help me, I have the same setup from Bulkman, running windows 10, Mach 3. I bought the rs845- usb adapter and followed your directions. The VFD plugin from that french website is called "corrupt" and is being "ignored" from Mach3. Do you have any suggestions?
For sure, you probably only need to install this and then reload mach3 www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=48145
@@IllDoItMyself I have the same problem... I have uninstalled all versions of C++, about 8 of them... I reinstalled the download you provided above, but, it does not fix the situation. I still get the file being ignored message. got any other suggestions?
got it to work, in my case, downloaded the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 after this I was able to load the vfdplugin.dll w/o issues... so on my laptop, I only have 2015 and 2008 versions of the C++ libraries. hope this helps...
This is fantastic. I had so much trouble trying to get my nvum controller working with my vfd. Turns out the nvum was bad. I will definitely go to the rs486 adapter though as it seems to be just a better all around method.
Thanks! Yeah by far a better option and for the price can't really go wrong.
Hey, about 9 minutes into the video you added that a connection from the VFD to the NVUM controller, the settings that followed directly after that, are they only applicable if you added that connection to get better control of the RPM's or do i have to set them regardless? Once again thanks for all your help :)
Hey that's right you should be good to go with the dial to control it.
@@IllDoItMyself Great, so just to confirm, if i did not add that extra connection to better control the speeds and feeds then i would not have to worry about the settings you changed after you added it? Just want to make double sure :) I dont have that added connection therefor i would not need to add the additional settings?
Yep that should be it.
Howdy, I programmed the inverter today. I ran the spindle test with the inverter and it all worked out fine. I plugged in the laptop, opened Mach3 and started running the spindle and motor test. Everything was working great, axis were moving, spindle was responding, but then it all stopped. The inverter was next to me and i show an orange glow on the left side and it started to get hot. I shut everything down. Now the inverter won't come back on. After a min it starts to get hot again. I checked and rechecked everything before i started it? I sent email to the seller hoping for a replacement. I would like to know if you may know what would cause this to happen? Thank you
Thanks for this informative video. Caveat Emptor, the RS485 to USB converter that is specified in this video is not compatible with Windows 10, only Windows 7.
I can’t thank you enough for these videos! Question, when changing the rated motor current (pd142) it only goes up to 8. Any suggestions?
Looking for help connecting the STB5100 motion controller to the VFD (exact one in your video. I can not find any consistent information on the proper wiring.
Does the kit come with the instructions? Like, does the kit instructions show how to set up the VFD if you're using GRBL and not mach3?
Are you going to make more videos
I have tried this verbatim. I have the same set up and my spindle keeps stopping in the middle of carving and giving me the E.oA.n error code. Any advice?
Hi, Man,
I have a cnc same as you but i having a hard time put it working correctly with the toolphats. What program are you using to make it?
Best Regards and nice videos.
Heya, I'm using fusion 360 for my CAD and Cam (toolpaths). You can simply select the mach3 post processor and export gcode.
@@IllDoItMyself Yes i am using it, but i make a simple pocket. And when i set the Z to 0 and start the program machine starts to go deeper of the 0.
@@AndreSilva-et7tf did you get yourself running?
@@neurowocky4791 I start using aspire 9 and its working. Trying solving some issues but working nice. Thanks
Its not working for me. I'm using windows 10. is this a problem?
I did all the same wiring and inverter settings, but the spindle is stuck at 8000 RPM and ignores control. Sometimes it is possible to change the RPM value, but then it immediately returns back to 8000. What's wrong?
If it's indeed the same vfd I would verify the settings again and this can limit the max values
@I'll Do It Myself, I have gone through all of your videos without a problem but now at this point, I am having issues :( I have placed the VFD dll in the proper place but when I open Mach3, it tells me "Plugin DLL Defective, Reload." and then vfdPlugin.dll - Defective Plugin Found..ignoreing.. :( Please help as this is the last thing I need to complete in order to use my setup. TY!
Sure you just missing the version of vcredist that it needs install this and reload mach3

@@IllDoItMyself TY! I tried to DL that from the Plugin Dev page but was an error with the link he posted :( TY again!
Great videos! You have been most helpful in my build. Did you have any problems getting mach3 to recognize the NVUM plugin? I can't get it to appear in the popup at mach3 startup or in the config plugins. Can you give me some guidance please? TYIA
Did you get this sorted?
So, the RS485 is connected to the PC running Mach3 in addition to the standard USB connection for the sole purpose of rpm control, correct? It does not replace the main USB connection? (i.e. - you'll have 2 USB connections between the PC and the VFD, yes?)
Correct but it's well worth it!
@@IllDoItMyself Excellent. Thanks!!
I seem to be having the same issue as @LucasWilson a few posts below. Spindle was turning and responsive to rpm changes in Mach3, but after the VFD changes adding the RS485, the spindle won't turn. Set an RPM in Mach3 and click to start the spindle and the RPMs immediately return to zero with no spindle response. Any ideas? I'm considering doing a factory reset and going back through all the steps in the video.
Are you in Australia with the 110v spindle? Should I be ordering a 220v spindle for use in Australia?
I'm an aussie in Canada. You will want 220v for sure over there!
@@IllDoItMyself Thanks. I figured as much and ordered with the 220v a few days ago. Now the waiting game haha. Awesome job on the videos by the way. I will be using them to do the build when it arrives. Only thing is I’ve ordered it with the xpro v5 control box so I’ll have to figure that out. If you’ve had any experience with those, any advice in advance would be greatly appreciated.
Keep up the good work mate 👍🏻
Hey there, great video!! I have the same 110v vfd and 2.2.2kw spindle. I'm not finding a wiring video in particular the 110v in and the motor wires out. To be more specific my question is about the "earth wires". Do all the ground and shielding wires go together to the ground terminal on the motor out put side or????? Im confused and dont want to fry anything
Yes you want to jump the sheild the spindle ground and the main ground onto ground terminal
Thanks, so now i have it a wired up, i thought id just adjust my speed and derection manually with the potentiometer for now but i cant get it to go over 266hz
Take a run through and check your settings that usually indicates a maximum is not set somewhere.
Hey! are these settings suitable for 220 volts? Thanks!
There are a few that are slightly different. It should be easy to see them in the video.
@I'll Do It Myself, I have followed all of your setups to the max and my VFD reads 5 lower on most RPMs. 8000 would be 7995 and so on. There are a few points that are spot on but not many. Any suggestions or is it just as good as it will get?
Is this using the usb dongle?
@@IllDoItMyself Correct! EXACTLY as yours.
Interesting I have not experienced that. I mean 5 rpm is not going to matter in the grand scheme of things so I wouldn't worry about it.
@@IllDoItMyself I appreciate it! I have everything setup and waiting for my water cooler so I can utilize the flow alarm as a shut off for the controller ( I think I can use this function).
I have a question. What cable do I use for the rs485 usb adapter. If I Google rs485 cable I can't find a similar cable to yours.
Please helo
Thank you so much for your awesome tutorial.
Hey any 2 wire cable will do. If you can get a shelided one that's even better.
@@IllDoItMyself ok thanks I did this and I installed c++ 2008 and also inserted the plug in in the folder. Now in the configuration it says: "unable to read value" 😭
Do you know a possible solution? Have I done something wrong?
I used a 2 wire cable from a Lan cable.
@@IllDoItMyself I'll try it with a different cable and will give feedback if this works
@@IllDoItMyself works now perfect! I used a junk cable (red black) what was left. And works perfectly fine.
Thank you so so much! You helped me a lot.
Without you I wouldn't be able to build the machine by myself.
Thank you!!!
Your welcome happy cutting!
I have a question about the rigidity of the machine. I saw a post of Mickey Ralte (ua-cam.com/video/VOqi_yrpmfI/v-deo.html). At 13 seconds you see how much play he has on the x axis. The workbee seemed so rigid to me, but this really scared me so much that I hesitate to buy one. Do you encounter the same problem? Is it an issue that always occurs, or did Mickey make a mistake installing/tuning the machine? Curious what your experiences and thoughts are.
Wow. There is something seriously wrong with his setup. It's also belts not lead screws. Honestly I can even budge the x gantry along its axis.
@@IllDoItMyself : Thank you very much. You comfort me.
please share mach3 screen link
For sure, I have added it to the description also.

Good work with the tutorial, I have a question, I have configured everything as you do in the video, but the spindle does not increase or decrease revolutions from mach 3, do you know why this happens to me?
Thanks are you using the usb method or direct from NVUM?
@@IllDoItMyself Direct from NVUM
I get it to activate but I can't modify the revs of the spindley

Great job, can't thank you enough for your video series! I bought a Workbee 1515 and followed your build videos with great results so far. I am having a problem with the RS485 working that I'm hoping you might have some insight on. I'm using a slightly different RS485 dongle from DSD Tech, the driver seemed to install correctly and when configured in Mach3 it says that the settings have been read from the VFD. However, when I go to start the spindle, nothing happens. I had the spindle working before I connected the RS485 dongle. Any ideas?
Hey Lucas I'm glad it helped you. It's possible you missed a setting on the vfd. If you can read the settings your dongle should be fine. Check pd001 and pd002 need to be set to 2.
@@IllDoItMyself Thanks for getting back to me. The settings seem to be ok for pd001 and pd002, I'm wondering if it's something to do with rotation direction? I'll look into it more tomorrow.
@@lucaswilson6123 best of luck. Hit me up on Facebook if you get really stuck.
