Changing Acceleration Settings in Ruida for Russ's Light Weight Head

Hi there,

I have a 50 watt China Blue with Ruida 6442 controller. I have recently added Russ’s light weight head and have removed the drag chain from my X-axis. Since I have reduced mass, I wanted to increase the acceleration for X-axis.

I was able to change the value for acceleration in X axis vendor settings but when I change in the Cut Parameters section and write back the 45,000, when I re-read the settings after writing successfully, it is changed back to the original value of 8000.

Can someone explain to me why this is happening? I am confused why some values remain updated but others revert back to old value.

Thanks.

Hi John,

I think you only set this in the user parameters and not in the vendor parameters.

You have to set the maximum values in the vendor settings and then you can make a quick setting in the user parameters up to this maximum value.

You must set the value here.

This is the vendor settings … ?


I believe he did it correctly, but when he reads it back, it reverts to the 8000mm/s^2 value.

Wondering if someone else here has ever seen the Ruida not take a new value.

Mine has never been a problem… You can run faster with a lightweight head (green) and it usually gives you a bit more work area… Mine was a 5030 machine.

Thank you both for your replies, I think I need to clarify something. When I try to modify the acceleration parameter and write in area under Cut Parameters, the value reverts to the original, which I don’t understand. See below:

If I make the change in X-axis settings, it stores and is there when I re-fetch the settings, see below:

Can someone from LB Support tell us whether this is a bug or an expected behavior?

Thanks.

I think this is expected or it’s maximum for a cut operation. Mine also is at 8000 and it can have a value of anything higher. Sorry, didn’t realize you were talking about cut settings.

I don’t use these as they are cut parameters, since I don’t know how to enable them for use. Why would you want fast acceleration during a cut?

I believe in RDWorks there is a cut button… I don’t know how else it would know you are cutting or engraving.

Hi,
I have tested this with RD Works on my controller.
With the cut settings, it goes back to the smallest value that is possible for one of the two axes is set.
So in your case, Y will be 8000. If you set 10000, then you can also set 10000 under CUT, but you have to leave 45000 for X.

I hope this works for you too.
