Title: need help with simple brain
Post by: kirkchabot on March 15, 2011, 06:17:13 PM

I have (1) input to my mach that I want to use if it goes high the (feedhold) goes on
or if it switches back to low the program automatically resumes.
Anyone know how to do this?

Pretty simple to do, but I wouldn't as it wouldn't be safe.
Any time the input went OFF, the cycle would start, maybe not when you wanted it to.
You could use your input to an OEM trigger to feedhold, then require a Cycle Start to resume as normal.
Just doesn't look safe to me to do what you are asking.
Perhaps a more complex Brain could be safer than mine. ;D
Most likely the case. :)
