Hood the turret reverses to lock.You can hear the turret going past the locking pointand then it must reverse. The OEM triggers is working I tested it in a brisn brogram.

Hood the previous reply should have been brain.I tested it with a brain program and with that it is working (the OEM TRIg).

Ok if it reverses I dont see that in the macro, will look again though.
What kind of motor is on the turret? What does OutPut4 actually switch on and off?

Hood output4 drives a relay to turn the turret.When this relay falls away another relay comes in at a lower voltage and reverses the turret. This is hard wired.

I have disconnected the revers relay just to see if the relay was the problem.

OK that explains why its not in the macro, so I am presuming there must be some sort of stop pin or ratchet that is also released when output 4 is active and dropped when its not?

It is a ratched type turret.When it reverses it locks the turret.

You would have to set the macro to look for the Inputs rather than OEM Triggers if you are going to do that.
I am going to try something else but just cant get why its not working, I can get the output operating but the triggers are not stopping it, wish I was more knowledgeable in VB
