step direction spindle also functions as C axis

Hi Here is what I get can you explain it please.
To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

Thanks Steve

gee your the first person I know of that has used opto-ac5 besides me ( I wrote it ).
It's always cool when others find your stuff useful!

Hi
That is what is shown in the integrators manual opto_ac5. I will make changes and get things going.
I wish I had seen that. Thanks

The Opto 22 pci_ac5 looks like a good way to add I/O to a PC
Thanks Steve

Hi
What pins are for machine on / machine off ? I want to connect switches to these signals. Thanks Steve

motion.machine-enabled follows machine on/off

Hi The opto 22 works great. I have had to change my spindle design for now. I have changed to a 1/3 hp 3 phase motor with a automation direct gs1 drive.
I am using the inputs on the drive and opto outputs for direction control. I am wanting to add speed control. I have not got into the manuals yet would the gs2 vfd driver be
the way to go or can I add 0 to10 volt output with a opto 22 G4DA5 analog dc output? I know the analog module will not work with the pci-ac5, what interface/board do the
opto analog module work with? Also can some one point me in the right direction I have been working on my manual pulse generator with little success I have found a hal file but have been able to modify it to work. Thanks Steve
