The Gecko drive G203V Disable Pin Configuration help required.
I am building a homemade CNC in my home... and I am afraid that if I get PINNED in the large 6 foot x 8 foot machine that
I will have to cut my arm off with a pocket knife to free myself.... this is why I am asking the following:
I have a G203V Gecko Drive and it has a Disable Pin which will make the steppers free wheeling if supplied 5 volts from the controller.
A) What is the recommended Pin Configuration and logic or method of configuring the Mach 3 software?
Digital trig, enable, in the output pins seems a little daunting...ok... a lot daunting.
I assume that the E-Stop PIN 13 on my machine should somehow trigger 5 volts from the BOB to the Disable Pins on X, Y, and Z axis's
and after the E-Stop is reset the Disable pins on X, Y, and Z axis's will TOGGLE back to a Ground Value.
I am building my CNC from my own design using your knowledge... thank you so much for advice.
Lastly, I don't know what to call anything... so I don't know how to search or what to search for regarding this issue; so,
please forgive me for posting something that you can find in ten seconds... and that I could never find.... in a year
