Novamill, ancillary ports...
Posted: Tue 22 Mar , 2011 23:24 pm
Hi,
I have a novamill that I'd like to add functions to.
I noticed that MCodes allow for aux inputs coolant on etc. Are there any spare channels in the control box for my novamill that i can use to integrate other devices?
Also is there a spare motor control channel that i could use to drive a rotary table I've currently got running with a stepper and separate rs232 control card. One of the uses for the aux channels may be to trip the rotary table to do a standard move between passes for instance when cutting timing pullys etc.
It's an origional (not upgraded) 1999 model on RS232 port control.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers
