Hi Tweakie
I thought about it, but I have to many outputs that needs to be trigered.
My front turret has one relay to identify it, then 4 3 relays to trigger the T commands. The back turret have in total 7 relays, then there is the spindle which needs another 7 relays at minimum, that is if I want only CW, there is other relays for controlling the rolling, relays for telling the control when tha gears have been changed etc.
I thought of adding another LPT as well, but I would still be a few outputs short.
DAmn................. If I could only afford a PLC......
