General Mach Discussion / output question

« on: July 01, 2008, 07:16:33 AM »

Can anyone help me with an output signal question?  How do I configure an output signal that is pulled high or low when the Mach 3 has completed its program.  In other words, it signals a PLC that it has completed its work.  Thanks.

General Mach Discussion / remote start button

« on: June 19, 2008, 07:44:59 AM »

I am new to using Mach 3.  I want to start a program using a remote mechanical start button.  I do not want to press the Start button on the PC.  I am using OEM TRIGGER #1 pin 15 as the input.  I can see it change states on the diagnostic screen.  I do not know how to create a macro or whatever is needed to be called from the main program to look for the trigger to change states and start the program.  Any help would be appreciated.
