    Hi everybody.
    I'm a beginner in G-code. I'm working on a Workbee 1010 with 1.5kw spindle. And I have a problem :
    My first try on the machine is with the Hello World example.
    It's set with a speed of spindle : M3 S1000 (G-Code) that's working.
    but just after, the speed of the spindle decrease and I can see the spindle rotate very slowly during the next code lines.
    Have you a solution to keep the rpm ?
    Regards,
    Jeremy.

    You need to set your Grbl params to match the actual spindle Max: See gnea/grbl

    For example if your spindle tops out at 24000rpm, set $30=24000
    Then if you want 10000rpm, you send M3 S10000

    And then you can fine-tune your 0-10v if its a little off still: See docs:blackbox:connect-vfd [OpenBuilds Documentation]
