Default Single-Phase, at last! (r2e4)

(meatwad) fired this volley in
oups.com:

˙can you elaborate on
how you changed your machine over to single phase?


Sent a PM. It's quite easy on the R2E4, which has two power transformers
operating in single phase, but from two separate phases. No phase
referencing is being done, so it's just a matter of re-wiring a bit, and
adding a VFD with some reversing contactor translation for the VFD
control inputs.

DO NOT attempt to use the existing reversing contactors on the output of
your VFD, or you will fry it.
