does anyone know how i put my tool changer EMCO TURN 140 (Sauter) can connect to CS LAB?
OR has anyone an electrical diagram of the turret
Thanks in advance

now with the electric wiring
hopefully someone can help me to connect this toolchanger the CS LAB board + VB script
Thank you

Do you have a timing diagram that shows the solenoid/motor activation/deactivation in relation to the position/proximity signal statuses?
-
best,
see the link in my question
then you see the electrical wiring and time schedule of the toolchanger in my google +
thanks in advance to help me

Now I've found the timing diagram (I've attached it below), it's not that much different from my Barafuldi turret.
I don't personally use any CS-Labs stuff (I use KFlops), and I'm not sure if it'll work due to the tight timing constraints required for the locking sequence.
For those that use CS-Labs stuff, is it possible to control outputs with millisecond accuracy via VB?
The reason is, the pre-locking solenoid has to be activated in under 30milliseconds of the required postion strobe being activated and the position inputs being checked.
I'm thinking the VB/CS might be limited by the standard Mach3 10Hz plugin refresh?
I know I ended up using a PLC to control my turret, but that was due to lack of inputs/outputs, rather than timing constraints.

I dont think the timing will be that tight between CSMIO and Mach with VB, a PLC would likely be the easiest option.

I have now opted for a PLC BECKHOFF CX 8090 but am having trouble setting up the MODBUS TCP. anyone experience?
thx
-
Afraid I have only ever used the Koyo DL06 and also I have just used the Non-Plugin serial interface.
You may however get more help if you post on the Modbus section of the forum as Peter Homann and Scott Schaefer will likely be able to help with the TCP Modbus.

Hello Hood thx for the response;
I have already posted my question there
