Micro drip system

Hi There, I have 2 questions

I am trying to find some way to use a peristaltic pump to add oil drops to my engrave, so I found a pump to do that but It can not run continuously, is there any way to the mach3 turn on 5 sec and off for 20sec a parallel port pin when the spindle is on?

When the gcode finish is there any way to the z axis will be more high than a 1mm? I always has to change manually the z en the gcode

Thanks

Gianni

Hi Gianni

see attached brain - it assumes your spindle is on OUTPUT1 and your pump is on OUTPUT2 - edit to suit.

your z will go wherever your gcode tells it to. If you're using CAM - change the settings there.

Cheers
