Hello everyone,
I am working my way through a CNC lathe upgrade (the controls were nearly pre-DOS) and i am using the GRex and Mach3 to run things and i have most of it worked out however i can't work out how to set up the spindle in Mach. I have the X and Z axis working fine but i can't work out how to move the spindle.
The spindle is setup to run through a G320 the same as the other axes (The G320 happily holds it's position as expected with no spindle signal sent), i can't find a setting to tell the Grex which output channel (A,B or C) the spindle is on. In the spindle setup tab i have the step/dir enabled in the motor control group, In the motor outputs tab i have tried with just the spindle enabled, with just the axis the spindle is wired on enabled (A initally but i even rewired it to C after thinking i remembered reading this was important somewhere) and with both of these on.
Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong?
Thanks
