General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach3 w/ new UC100 No Limit switches recognized
« on: June 13, 2017, 07:57:36 AM »
I am using the UC100 through a BOB. The BOB is where I "Was" getting the 5v power for the sensors. THey are recommended to be 8vdc minimum up to 30vdc.
SO, my divider got me to 10V for the sensors. The signal from the sensors to the BOB inputs pulls the ~9v down to 0.7vdc when sensor is activated. Doesn't the BOB isolate that from the UC100? I know its works currently. I found that the BOB was putting the 9.3V OUT of the inputs. if you pull that down to 0, then the Mach3 registers an output.
