Mach4 General Discussion / Re: External LED when Probe Active
« on: March 21, 2022, 03:42:38 PM »
Thanks for your reply. I am currently trying to accomplish this using PMC which seems fairly straight forward. I generated the Lua from PMC and did the screen edit but have not been out to the shop to see if it works. I'll let you know. Using the probe input port 2 pin 11 to turn on the output port 2 pin 16 which I have wired to my LED.

Mach4 General Discussion / External LED when Probe Active

I am using Port 2 Pin 11 for my probe and would like an external LED by where the probe is so I don't have to look at the PC. I'm using Mach4, Smoothstepper (ESS) and
PMDX-126. Don't know how to accomplish this. Thanks for your time and consideration.

While waiting for your file I decided to delve into brains myself. I had some Boolean logic from school and the only difference between
yours and mine was you used a pass through and I used an immediate compare > 0. They both work fine. Thanks for inspiring me to
learn. 40 below C hear last night. Hope your in better weather.

I am using Port 2, Pin 11 for my probe input and would like to use Output 4 to drive the LED. Would there be much delay from contact to the LED coming on. I am using a PMDX-126 with USB smoothstepper. Thanks for your help.

I was afraid there would be no easy way to do this. I even thought that some simple circuitry that's watching the input circuit could turn on the led but I'm not savvy enough to come up with that.

I am tired of having to look at the diagnostics screen to see if I have probe continuity before running auto zero. I did modify the screen to add a digitize led by the auto tool zero button. Still would like a LED at the router so I don't have to look at the computer at all. How would I configure the probe input to turn on an output that I could drive the LED with.
