Re: Offset after homing sequence (router table)
I just manually add to my program the WCS command before each section of the program I want a wcs. I run this job several times a year and I have these WCS set and I never reuse them so whenever I run this job, I just call up the program and run it (assuming I haven't changed vise or jaw locations )...

Re: Source for E-Stop (Dual NC Switches)
Hi Eric I have used a few of these estop switches with enclosures from automation direct. not as cost effective as the ones you purchased, but if you cannot wait on the slow boat, they have them in stock and you can get them pretty quick https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/shopping/catalog/pushbutt...

Re: E-Stop input has stopped working on DYNA 2400 Acorn Refit
I swapped the board from my G540 system and the e-stop input works on the second board just like it did when it was first wired up to the now faulty board. I can either use this board on a machine that doesn't need the db25, rewire the e-stop to the green connectors and leave that input faulty, or r...

Re: E-Stop input has stopped working on DYNA 2400 Acorn Refit

Re: E-Stop input has stopped working on DYNA 2400 Acorn Refit
When I do that, Input 3 does not change, the rest of the inputs work as expected. Input 3 was working fine in the beginning. It quit working after I wired up inputs 4 and 5 to use as cycle start and feed hold as the machines old retrofit control panel has a switch for feed hold and cycle start. If I...
