CNC USB CONTROLLER MK3 4 SCHEMATIC UPDATE
PLEASE NOTE: MK3DRV can be used only with PlanetCNC TNG software version SW2017.10.30(or newer), if you will use older version for update such as SW 2017.10.20 beta you could bridge it. There are currently four models available. Now you can use your control box with PlanetCNC TNG software and your CNC machine. Locate E-Stop switch cable and cut off its connector.Ĭonnect it to Mk3DRVs GND and eSTP terminals: Take cable sets for x,y,z motors that we previously disconnected from JP-382C board: And cut off the connectors: Each motor cable set should have 4 wires, 2 wires of one colour and other 2 in different colour. In the first instance try to use a quality double sheilded. At the back panel place controller into existing cutout hole and screw it: Screw in also pillars at the bottom side of control box: 8. Additional Information: Additional Information: Additional Information: The planet cnc controller can be prone to electrical interference and has been known to cause such problems. Red wire should be connected to “+” terminal and black should be connected to “–“ terminal:ġ1. The price combination is much higher than the USB controller with planet-cnc, but will work with Mach3. Locate power supply cable and cut off its connector.Ĭonnect power supply cable wires to Mk3DRV power supply terminal 24V. Motor phase 1 wires (yellow wires) are connected to terminals 1A and 1B, motor phase 2(red wires) is connected to terminals 2A and 2B.ġ0. Connect motor cable wires for X,Y and Z axis to Mk3DRV motor output terminals MOTOR 1(X), MOTOR 2(Y) and MOTOR 3 (Z). Take cable sets for x,y,z motors that we previously disconnected from JP-382C board:Įach motor cable set should have 4 wires, 2 wires of one colour and other 2 in different colour.Įach colour represents separate phase of stepper motor.ĩ. Screw in also pillars at the bottom side of control box:Ĩ. At the back panel place controller into existing cutout hole and screw it: Attach and screw them to Mk3DRV controller:ħ.
