General Mach Discussion / serial port

« on: April 09, 2009, 10:30:04 AM »

in mach 3 can i use serial port and connect it with plc and take the output to certain address and then control the machine from it and also if this possible can also i input some data from plc to mach 3
all the best

i tried to use a relay 5 volt and i connect its coil contact to pin #3 and pin#18 ant take contact from it's contact's but the relay is not work so i think may be the signal from mach 3 is not hi and low o according to the direction can anyone help me to solve this problem

thanks a lot hood that's main in on direction it will be hi and in another direction it will be low so i can use a realy but i'd like to ask also about the current on it is enough to make a relay work or may be i'm in need to use a transistor to drive this relay
thanks alot

General Mach Discussion / direction signal from mach3

« on: April 09, 2009, 08:11:06 AM »

i have a bridge cutter for marble and i tried to modify it as cnc but its axises work by normal ac motor so i choose to drive it with omron f7 inverter with can use it to work  as servo but when i use mach 3 i can't change the direction of motor from mach 3 because the driver need a contact between 2 point to change the direction but i don't know the direction signal in mach 3. is it one pulse for every change direction or it's a pulse train or it's  a contact  so can you help me to know it's uniform and if it possible also how can i convert it to normal contact between 2 physical point by electronic circuit or relay or any other solution all the best
