Hello Mach community! I have an awesome project I am working on, with your previous help I have been able do so much
!.
I am converting a CHNC right now, I have one prob though....
The turret is very unique...
This is the process of what should happen:
Trigger output 5 ON (lift and spins turret counter clockwise)
Wait for input (this is where it gets narly)
There is 4 wires that come off of this encoder (signal outputs 12v), yet there is 8 positions, so I am assuming there is a BCD code, like tool one = 1001, tool two = 1010
The (1) represents wire (X) is high and (0) represents wire (x) is low
So I have the outputs wired to 4 inputs on my cnc4pc c23 card.
When is gets the right output on the right inputs, then
Trigger output 6 (fires a stop dog that stops the turret)
Trigger output 5 OFF
Trigger output 6 OFF
change current tool to selected tool and current offset to selected offset.
continue program.
If you could help it would be very appreciated!!!
Mike
