Mach4 General Discussion / Re: How to link external controller and tool number?
« on: July 28, 2022, 04:58:59 AM »
Thanks for the good advice.
Could you please share the M6 script?
I was thinking of an external Arduino that could handle it easily, because of the difficulties of the M6 script.
Control the motor to move the ATC to the replacement position and
Rotate the tool palette, replace it, move it back to the exchange standby position,
I have to do several programs.
Because I'm new to the M6 Lua script

why use external plc?
i use mach with pokeys , i use about 24-28 inputs and about 50 outputs , i do all i need
i use ATC with servo or without , and many other devices by the mach
in some cases when we have 2 or more axiss that need work in paralel i use 2 pc as master and slave
i cant think about any challenge cant implemet by mach ( many times need use external application but still all its conect to mach)
even RS485 absolute encoder to read the value i have c# application that run from mach
no need arduino , no need any external plc
