kentonsj,
You custom board turned out awesome. Should really help out with noise immunity.

Gary,
Thanks for sharing. Wow the LEDs and the Ribbon connector for the relay board are really nice enhancements. It just keeps getting better and better.

Fixed compiler error by moving my addition, so now it compiles fine but I get a undefined PLC message 33 when I start CNC12. The parts that I modified to add this test are detailed below. My guess is since I am adding this the IF Tooltouchofftriggered test near the front of the initialstage that the...

Well no dice. I get a compiler error. Error Line 1780 Col 5: Invalid Action, Compilation Failed When I started CNC12 I get two undefined PLC message errors (33) and (39), guessing these are caused because I have added a message to plcmsg.txt and the compile failed so the message is not defined. The ...

After reading more in the PLC programming manual and taking feedback from Arrow, here is what I have done in preparations of compiling the PLC program. Keeping my fingers crossed. LOL I was a C programmer for years but much of the context of PLC programming is different. Russ ***********************...

Looks like the messages are defined as constant definitions. Still reading to get more details in the PLC programming guide. Wow lots of reading.

cbb1962, You are correct each time you make changes I would have to add the code again. In fact I was examining the source and noticed it must get changed each time you run the Wizard. Why do I think that is the case? Because if you look at my configuration for input and output assignments they are ...

Doc1, The software actually works correctly. You have something setup wrong. Trust me when you get this running you will love it. The machine does exactly what you tell it to do if you setup things correctly. Mach3 would go off and do things totally unexpectedly. I spent years using Mach3/Mach4 and ...

Arrow,
Thanks, yeah I knew this was not the source, but I was just reading on how to compile the PLC program and trying to figure out where this addition needed to be made. I will give it a test later today and put the line before the RST initial stage and see what happens.

Well I have been reading up on the PLC programming language and think I might be able to do the following changes to the MPU.plc program. The Initial Stage of the PLC program is executed one time when you start up Acorn, per the programming manual. By add the last line in this initial stage if the T...
