ok everything look's to be correct set up.

let's do some tests.

-enter M3 to MDI line and have a look in dianostic page for Output1 to be enabled
-enter M5 to MDI line and have a look in dianostic page for Output1 to be disabled

if Output1 is switching in diagnostic page can you see the relay LED (byside the power LED) switching ?

Meanwhile I appreciate greatly, If you could clarify this sensor issue for me.
The codes that I posted before, is it going to do the Job? Do I need to add more lines?
Could you direct me to some sample codes on this matter?

hello Johnansaro,

the code you have posted will only do the following:

input4 i s on -> stop spindle (M5)

i do not know anything about your spindle,
but normaly there is a pneumatic valve for lock/unlock the tool,
and some Switches for tool locked and tool unlocked.

these switsches are noramly going to mach3 Inputs and then they have
to be controlled by M6 macro witch handles the ATC.
