    Thanks for checking that out! I'm reading over it too and I'll do some testing this week when I get a chance to wire and power up the drive. I haven't done any wiring on it yet. I'll keep you posted. Thanks!

    When I saw the stop switch you installed on your machine, I thought, that looks like a good idea(while I'm wiring it up anyway). But, if my DP isn't set up for it, that's alright too I guess. Just thought it seemed a good idea. Thanks

    I'm not sure about the stop input. I figured you just wired it inline with the power or the fwd/rev switch. I've no knowledge in this area. The three phase panel currently attached is complex. I thought that the current panel would be completely removed replaced by the VFD. Advice needed...

    PoorUB, thanks so much for the reply and the links. Your DP looks great! I hope its working well. I ordered the fan and filters. I have a couple questions on the switches. About the FWD/REV switch- Did you order the 20A, 8 terminal switch? and about the "Oh sh*t" switch- the ones I'm looking...

    PoorUB, Sorry for the lengthy delay. I am just seeing this msg now. I either didn't get the email notification or missed it somehow, sorry. Anyway, no, I haven't gotten it done yet, but my schedule has eased up and I'm ready to get this DP running. I still need to order some parts. I'm just...

    Sorry for the delay, I had a few things come up that were more pressing and required my immediate attention(furnace/upstate NY). Anyway, the VFD and enclosure have arrived. The power cord to VFD is ordered(but not the cable for VFD to motor..still working on that). I'm looking at fan/s for the...

    Dave, I agree, that is the best spot for the control switches. Most likely that's where I'll put them, and I'll locate my power switch somewhere else. Thanks

    Dave, thanks for the link to the ebay switch. You're right, you can get it a LOT cheaper there.

    About the existing Rockwell switch. Just opened it up. I like the idea of original/authentic and all that... but it looks a bit shady. Is that tape something they normally do in the field? It does work, because that's how I tested the machine.
