Re: Triac Spindle (Issues)

I am also having issues with the spindle not running after a recent crash. These fuses are ok are they any others I've missed?

HI,

Did you fix this? Sounds similar to my problem
Yes fixed now. I re installed VR Milling v5 with the latest version this did the trick.
My spindle was also not working this was fixed with a fuse replacement.

Re: Nova Mill mint version message

Thanks for the kind offer problem solved. Don't know what went wrong but a re install with the newer VRM 5.7 and replaced a blown fuse on the spindle control board has done the trick.

As you are only located in Bradford could you bring the machine and computer to the factory in Brighouse We could take a look at it for you?
Sorry i have only just seen this reply but this would be great if we could?

Hi Rich,
Where are you based?
If you can bring the Mill to me (Bradford BD18) I'll do the conversion for you for 50 quids. (not including the parts ofcourse)...

Laurent.

Hi Laurent. I realise this thread is many years old now but is this still an option?

After 20 years of working perfectly, I've just turned on the novamill to get a pop up stating the pc mint version is wrong and do i want to download another one, whichever option I pick, yes or no, it will not connect. I get another pop up with some suggested solutions which I've done with no luck. ...

Re: Locking up when homing

Hmm. It stops before all axis have reached home though, so this would be before the door unlocks? If I try the door it is still locked.

Have you updated the software recently?

Locking up when homing

Hi all. Hope everyone is well. We have a Turn 270 which has worked fine for the last 5 years however it has now developed an intermittent fault. It runs fine, cuts out a part with a couple of tool changes in amongst parts off and heads to home. As X and Z head home they come to the meeting point, th...

Quick Turn Tool Type option

Anyone know why the Tool Type option is greyed out? I'm sure I used to be able to change it.

Re: Novaturn won't connect

Thanks for quick reply. 1 Drivers are installed. 2 I tried both machines from the select machine menu but didn't check they matched in the parameters. Hopefully it will be that.

Novaturn won't connect

Hi All. I am having an issue trying to connect to an upgraded to USB nova turn using VR turning. It seems it is still trying to connect using the RS232 and searching com ports rather than looking at the USB port. I am told it has worked previously so am I just missing a setting somewhere? Thanks for...

Feedrate Override

Hi all.
I connect and can home the novamill but as soon as I try jog this pops up. The pots are inactive so cant just turn them up. Can anybody shed any light on it, I must just be overlooking something dead simple?

Re: Phoenix Magnum Router Control Software

Is there anyone still at Denford that used to deal with the supplier of these machines? According to Bizapedia the company still exist but there doesn't seem to be a web site or any contact info for them.
