Hello,
I have a minarik 80 vdc controller and a 1/3 hp motor. I need to add 2 reversing switches/limit switches for an automated project. The motor turns a gearbox and then a lead screw. It needs to reverse at the end of travel at each end. I can get one reversing switch to work, DPDT switch. Not a big problem getting that to work . I can't seem to get two to work. The second just shuts off the power to the motor. The motor will spend it's life moving very slowly, adjusted at a pot, pulling about 1 or 2 volts all the time ( that's what the multimeter indicates anyway ). I've seen threads about using relays, diodes and H-bridges.
Can someone PLEASE post a simple diagram, that I can understand, to get the second reversing switch to work ?
Thanks !
