Agree. Though to use all 8 inputs you will need an Ether1616
COM= Acorn power supply COM
I think this may be fairly straight forward with the Gray logic Lathe ATC PLC

Re: Lenovo Think Center M92P for Acorn <updated model M93P>
They are good computers, M92P is long in the tooth. They run Win10 fine. M93's are a little newer.
Be aware though, Windows 10 going on life support. WE only have a few more years before Windows 11...and it has hardware requirements.

Re: Denford Mirac 8 position tool changer wiring
In looking at that picture of the switch, and comparing colors, they all jibe. I also see the grey wire in that picture. I don't think you will need the diode board. The Grey (COMmon) wire would go to Acorn power supply COM. You just need to take your cover off and validate that the picture below ma...

Re: Denford Mirac 8 position tool changer wiring
Oh, try not to take remove the switch. It is likely calibrated to the tool changer already (unless someone previous to you removed it before. Look for any witness or alignment marks)

Re: Denford Mirac 8 position tool changer wiring
Take your cover off and take some detailed pictures of your turret wiring for us.
Carefully count the number of wires on the switch. Is there 8 or 9. Schematics say 9 with the GREY being the COMmon
You have to dig into your turret.

Re: Denford Mirac 8 position tool changer wiring
This page on the Denford forum is interesting, i don't quite understand it all yet though. https://www.denfordata.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=6062&p=24832&hilit=DM+08+turret#p24832 They seem to run a Grayhill 8 position switch (44A45-01-1-08N) That is enlightening. If you want to do thi...

Re: Motors are winding out on rapid moves
Your steppers are not "Winding out" They are stalling . Unfortunately, you did not keep to ONE build thread. You have posts all over the place. Be very specific and tell us what make/model stepper motors you are using, and the stepper driver? I believe you are using the Sherline factory st...
