The output is #2 which controls my D.P.D.T relay 24vdc for forward and 12vdc holding voltage for reverse with change in polarity. All that is working when I use MDI with M18. I have the las...

Re: Acorn time base turret Emco 5

I tried the tool change on MDI T0101 ETC. with no movement of the turret. I reloaded the program and all the files from the zip but still the same problem no movement from the turret only in the turret index on the VCP. At this point I have ran out of ideas.

Re: Acorn time base turret Emco 5

Well everything seems to work with the exception of MDI tool change command. It will index to home with the MDI M18 Command and the index button on the control panel will advance the changer forward one position.
Any ideas what I am doing incorrectly?
