My spindle will not come on when using auto mode. I’m using carbide motion and have reset everything, the spindle does work in manual mode just fine. What could be the problem?

Carbide Controllers are unable to trigger the “forward” function of our VFD’s. You’ll have to hit the “RUN” button then start your program.  
Alternatively you could use our new “auto-forward” program settings… [https://youtu.be/SvAJuFM4eqE?si=2Ir36Eb8dEX9Dq0y](https://youtu.be/SvAJuFM4eqE?si=2Ir36Eb8dEX9Dq0y)

Thanks for all the hard work in making our life easier.
