Often a small 3 phase motor will run fine on single phase, you might put
a run cap between the phase to balance it like a RPC does. If it will
start on single phase it will run. If it won't start then a start cap
would be needed.

immediately go a flurry of sserial errors which locks up LinuxCNC. Mind
you this is with the 7i77ISOL card between the 5i25 and the 7i77 which
is supposed to block any noise in the sserial communications. The X2 to
ground has to go...
I do have a 7i92 to test out...

I do have a "control transformer" which can be identified by the three
fuses on top. One for X1 (secondary) and one each for L1 and L2. I went
back and found out which was X1 and X2 and will correct my wiring today.
My question is I have a filter on X1 and X2 should I ground before or
after the
It is a common practice to send out two hots and one neutral provided
the two hots are not on the same phase. This is a copper saving thing

I was just curious not needing to compare.

If you have limit switches set them up to home also, saves time when
firing up as last offsets are still good. Also the soft limits work when
you home. Got a photo of the el cabinet?

Ground to chassis is 0.01 ohm.

Hi Jon,
So tie say the 48v side to ground to create the neutral? I attached the
drawing of what I have so far on the VFD side.
Happy New year to you and I hope you stayed dry during the recent
monsoon we got.

My first guess is that the Bridgeport itself, is not groun
I went and checked the control transformer and one side is 48v to ground
and the other side is 79v to ground. I guess I was confused by that.

On the 120v side if I measure from the hot to the ground I get 79 volts,
if I measure from hot to neutral I get the expected 128v... what is that
telling me?

An update, I got the serial isolator but it did not work out of the box.
It had something about DTE and DCE that I didn't understand how to tell
what the GS2 uses and can't find anything about DTE or DCE in the manual...

The VFD filter has no place to connect a neutral... only hots and ground.
