I have that same meter in my lathe as the spindle load meter. Seems to be working just fine, had it in place for the last year. Easy to program with the included software.

Jim,

How would I set up a spindle load meter using the same meter?

Jim,

How would I set up a spindle load meter using the same meter?

I use a 0-10VDC output from my VFD, programmed for % load, scaled 0 to 150% from the VFD. Then set the scale on the meter to match the VFD scale. The programming software for the meter allows you to add just about any text you want to display on the meter face. I also have mine set up as a two color display, green from 0 to 100% and red flash from 101 to 150%. I don't remember if you can have a tri-color display.
