Connecting my 7i96s to the VFD was created by Gautham
Hi Everyone,
I have never setup a CNC machine before, so while I found many other people's posts on similar topics helpful, I'm still not confident enough to try it myself without asking someone if I have it correct. I have a 7i96s board, and I can see that the TB2 PINs 22,23,24 are as follows.
22 - SPINDLE-
23 - SPINDLE OUT
24 - SPINDLE+
And the below image is my VFD's pinout
From this I gather the following
22 - SPINDLE- to COM
23 - SPINDLE OUT to AI1
24 - SPINDLE+ to +10v
Is this correct? I also wanted to know how to control the direction. Thank you for being so helpful.

For direction, assuming S1 is FWD and S2 is REV:
S1 --> OUT4A
OUT4B --> COM
S2 --> OUT5A
OUT5B --> COM
S1 --> OUT4A
OUT4B --> COM
S2 --> OUT5A
OUT5B --> COM
