I should also say that I am presuming I need the A axis wired up as the MX2 has 2 steppers for the Y axis - 1 on each side of the router bed - these will need to be in 'sync' (trendy wording I know) 'slaving' the second stepper motor is the technical wording I think. finding out what wire pairs go to what stepper motors on the MX2. (please) Then I can get onto the major issue looming in the whole conversion process. Can someone in cyber electronics land defuse the confusion for me. Am I to understand that actually the blue wire to the Gecko D-type connector pin #9 should be at pin 3 (D+) on the Masso unit and the green earth wire should be into any one of the black 'GND' pins on the Masso board ? Or am I to understand that the green wire can be shoved into pin 4 (D-) as that is the same thing as 'Ground' ?. Also pin 2 is S- not D+ ? That is pin 3 is it not? Then there is no 'G' pin either. 1) the Masso G3 A axis connection block has 4 pins - same as the X, Y, Z green blocks - not 3. All was going well until (!) the last wee bit of the diagram where it has the A axis with the green wire to pin 25 on the Gecko D-type connector. AND who made up the spelling rules anyway.

All was going well untill (yes I know that is spelt wrong, but I learnt it wrong way back in primary school last century and now the die is cast and without copious amounts of Gu'mnt funding as well as free endless tax payer paid councelling (same issue ) I don't think there is any reason why I could possibly change a bad habit.

then following the links all the way to page. Next phase of the project was to wire the Masso to the Gecko, I have followed the wiring diagram available under 'Support' drop down. I have a decent heat sink on the back of the Gecko with its own fan as well. I have the Masso mounted to a box on a din rail with the Gecko unit in there as well.

I have the Masso unit up and running with screen, keyboard, mouse and software loaded. I have watched and read the support documentation and done all that I can do without help/bothering folks when the info is available already.

1 x Masso G3 with the MGP Pendant + 24V power supply, 1 x Gecko G540 drive system + 1x 48V power supply. So, $$$$ later I have the hardware necessary.

but this is NZ - DIY capital/center of the Universe. But I can follow coloured wire diagrams even if I have not much comprehension - dangerous I know. I do know that a 4000 volt 'whack' from the electric fence certainly gets ones attention + a mental reminder note to try and not let that happen again. alas the promises and fixes were as useless as each other.Īnyway after an inquiry to Masso I took the plunge.Īlso I should note here I don't know much about electronics at all. I did a rant on their face book page once and that got a response. Support from Vertigo has been, lets say, pathetic to say the very least. Final straw came when the whole file that was running 'disappeared' off the screen and the router decided to dig through my spoil board and gouge ugly hole into machine bed. Had nothing but trouble and random issues (read spoilt work, hang ups, failure to home properly, agro, etc) from the get go. I have Vectric Aspire for making my designs/code. CNCj was the interface for the routing files. The MX2 is brand new, and comes with a 'smoothie ware' controller board /box and USB connection to the PC. Hi all, Mtlchsr here from down under in NZ.I am trying to eliminate endless issues by converting my Vertigo MX2 (A kiwi product) router to Masso. Quote from Mtlchsr on January 30, 2020, 12:24 am
