Trouble Shooting
If your spindle is not turning on, follow the procedure below.
1. Check the REV and FWD LEDs on the Apollo I Breakout Board.
a. Neither REV nor FWD ever come on:
i. Make sure your spindle is enabled (Config->Ports and Pins->Motor Outputs).
ii. Set the spindle’s Step Pin# to 1 and the Step Port# to 2 (Config->Ports and Pins->Motor
Outputs).
iii. Enable outputs 1 and 2, set both Port#’s to 2 and the Pin#’s to 14 and 16 respectively
(Config->Ports and Pins->Output Signals).
iv. Make sure the check box Disable Spindle Relays is unchecked and that the Clockwise
Output # is 1 and the Counterclockwise Output # is 2. Also, select the check box PWM
Control and set the PWM Base Freq. to 100 (Config->Ports and Pins->Spindle Setup).
b. REV and/or FWD do work
i. Set the spindle speed to the maximum pulley speed.
ii. Check the 0-10V on 0-10 terminal on the Apollo I Breakout Board with a voltmeter. You
should read 10V.
