As for other devices like SSR, I'd run the live line directly to the water pump and switch the neutral through the SSR. Sorry if I'm not completely up to speed with 220/240V wired in the UK.  The contactor is only used to power the VFD two wires to the main power input terminals R and S of the VFD. The other circuit used with the contactor is cutting the negative of the 48V. DC to the Vmotor (stepper motors)

ok thank you i was just thinking the water pump is tee'd off T1 and T2 so if the water pump positive goes to T! will make sure that the 240V positive goes opposite this on the contactor at L1 thank you.

Still struggling to get a contactor may have to run items seperately for now which is a little annoying will try ebay.

Sorry if I confused you with the T connection I drew that wrong as well it should be connected to the incoming 240V terminals and not through the contactor. I'll re-draw the two components I've wired incorrectly and re-post it.

no problem thanks

I've updated the diagram and replaced it in the post.

[Stevo]

Thank you for that I have found this contactor would it be overkill ? It will obviously take 400v more than needed but is 24v DC ?

Yes, it's overkill but it will work!

Great stuff bought one

I use vectric aspire to create my code for cutter paths etc on my current set up.

How will this differ now using the scylla do i still send a file to the board wireless what interprets the code on the scylla do i need other file to read the code in the firmware?

To be honest I don't know I use Fusion 360 so not sure how your software sends gcode files. Maybe ask on Discord.

nine mile recommended I upload a firmware for a milo and adjust from there so will try that later and see where that gets me as I mentioned removing the non relevant cnc parts of the DWC UI and unrequited files in the system folder let you know how I get on buddy

Hi hope your well my friend?

I have good news ! I decided to power the Scylla up from the meanwell supply's today so after checking the stepper wiring more times than i care to mention i flicked the mains switch opened the web control and used a G-Code to ignore estop and endstops allowed me to check my axis direction's im please to say all three axis are running great. Even the Y with the two steppers. Cant believe how quiet it runs to what it used to sound like prior to the upgrade.

The wiring is basic literallly both meanwells into the board and thats it but gives me confidence im literally heading in the right direction.

So Limit stops is my next port of call i have one at the end of each axis travel so other than re-wiring these seperately i believe you mentioned these need to be normally open and closed ( complete circuit ) when triggered.

So thats six limit stops to wire in any help on which connections on the board so 3 to be able to home the three axis's and the other 3 as limit stops correct ?

Any need for jumpers on the board to be added ?

Code required to home the axis's etc

I'd suggest getting a tool setter to make tool changes much easier. I'm using this type in my setup. Can you show my what type of touch probe you have please.

Just one of these as you suggested will need help also with connection board and code please

 

[PFarm]

 That's great news! As for the end-stops wire them normally closed, this way they confirm they're connected. To verify they're connected properly depress the switch manually and enter M119 in the console to see if it triggered. The voltage pin on the end-stops isn't used you still need to select a voltage (jumper) for the circuit to work properly.

Shouldn't there be 8 endstops? Z max, Z min, X max, X min, Y max, Y min, A max, A min. Having a Y/A end stop allows to sync the stepper motors I believe, like on a 3D printer..

I can help you with that I'll dig out my notes.

I assumed as the second stepper was cloning the first it would react to the same triggered linit switch ?

Do i recall you saying the endstop connections on the board were incorrectly marked ?

No, they are labelled correctly for some reason only my motherboard-assigned pins are different. I've checked with other users on Discord. Ask on Discord regarding Y/A end-stops I think they're a sync (alignment) advantage of having them wired that way.

Yeah been a struggle for since the begin of the Scylla upgrade.

[Stevo]

Received my tool setter no wiring diagram really does annoy me ! green blue brown and orange wires  no instructions i suppose i will have to dismantle it to figure out what does what.

@Stevo Where did you purchase it from?

I found this on Reddit the protection wire is not used.

Thats a cracking find just been trawling google and got a few hits not with my wire combo though thank you.

[Stevo]

Ironically just thought i would check amazon reviews to see if anyone else had had an issue this guy has added some information on wiring 

So Brown Orange Green respectively into the Tool connector.

VMOS set to 5V and no need for pull up resistor as its NC?
