General Mach Discussion / Re: E-stop problem (new set-up)
« on: January 07, 2011, 06:42:44 PM »
Hi Hood, My last thought was correct, Mach 3 recognises this input via pin 5. The C10 user manual doesn't mention any input # / parallel port conversion. The C10 board has a female socket, so I'm using an old Belkin data cable with a male plug on both ends. I've just checked pin to pin with a multimeter and the Belkin cable is crossed and not pin to pin like a standard DB25 cable. I feel a bit silly now for not checking this sooner.... and having a background in automation!!
Many thanks for your offer of assistance, I'm sure to post help requests again when I get into software limits and fixtures.
All the best, Sean
