How are you controlling your spindle speed? What kind of spindle/drive is it?

I have controled speed witout electronics... i need just off/on.. so i need only when start maching to turn on spindel and when its done spindel off. no need to regulate speed

Ok so you only need one output to turn On/Off the spindle via a relay.

i setup on:

Config>Ports and pins
Output signals:

on output#1 :Chacked | 1 | 14 | active


but doesent work nothing

or if i must work on something other setup ??

Config, Ports and Pins, Spindle Setup and uncheck "Disable Spindle Relays" and enter 1 for M3. see pic.
