Yes, I've just done this myself for a laser cutter. `M3 S1' is sufficient. Originally I used M62/63/65 alone but the spindle-on interacts nicely with job start/stop whereas a digital output will happily stay on. My HAL has several ways to turn the laser on now which go into a lut5 that uses motion.spindle-on as a master enable. -- Ben Jackson AD7GD <b...@ben.com> http://www.ben.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses from deploying virtual desktops?
