There is also an axis sub call for VB scipting. This makes it so you can tell an axis that it is the New Z axis... Works well for a two headed router

Are you using the same switch as a home switch and limit switch?

Setting up the output to run the router is no problem

You need to do the following steps:
1 set the Pin for the output and we are going to use Output #1 Look at the pic below
2 Set the output that is going to run the "spindle" Look at the pic below

To test this do to the diagnostics page an see if you can see the LED change when you press the Spindle on button.

The input is done the same way, just set the port number to one and the pin number to 10 and if you have the input hooked up it should work


Hope this is a help
