Hi everybody, I'm using EMC2_2.4.4 for my hotwire foam cutting machine. Almost every thing runs fine and I'm very happy with EMC.
To start the heating of the hotwire I use a relay, wich is actuated by pin 14 through a break out board, to switch the heating power on and off. The hardware works fine. The "StepConfig Wizard" genrated the following lines to turn the spindel on and off: net spindle-cmd <= motion.spindle-speed-out net spindle-on <= motion.spindle-on net spindle-on => parport.0.pin-14-out This gives me in the Axis display to buttons to turn the spindle on and off. When pressing the two buttons with the left mouse button or F9 the pin 14 followes the state of the buttons of the display, maening going high and low. When trying to turn the spindle on with M3 or M4, from the MDI console or from a G-Code file, the buttons follow the commands (M3 / M4) but not the pin 14. When I manualy turn the spindel on with the mouse or F9, the command M5 turns the spindel off and pin 14 goes low representing the state of the buttons. What did I wrong? Any help would be higly appreciated. Regards Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer -- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE!
