Title: Spindle relay on by M3 command
Post by: ionapostol on February 19, 2019, 07:15:07 AM

Hi ,
I have a TB6560 board and I can control relay (black relay on low right in image atached) with F5 key or with Spindle CW F5 button on Mach3 interface but when I try to put M3 command in my G code nothing happends.
How can I control that relay to work with M3 M5 command?
Thanks

The problem has nothing to do with TB6560 chip, which is, by the way, crap.

ok found some additional Information, where it Looks like relay Output is port1 pin1.

so check:
->Config -> Ports & Pins -> Spindle Setup
    -disable spindle relays is not selected
    -ClockWise (M3) Output# is 2

->Config -> Ports & Pins -> Output Signals
   -Output #2 is enabled
   -Output #2 port is 1
   -Output #2 pin number is 1
