Controlling 2 outputs with one definition

Post by DanielCA92563 »

Hi,
I have a mill with brake on the z-axis, to release the brake I need to supply 24V.
I also have the power to all my axis servos for my mill on a contactor, to energize it I need to supply the contactor with 24V.
I have the brake on output 2 and the contactor on output 7.

Is there a way to have both outputs activated with the NoFaultOut command?
I know I can hardwire both together but I was wondering if there is a software way to do this. Thanks in advance!
Daniel

Assign your emergency stop output, which allows power to the servos, as "NoFaultOut".

Assign your Z axis brake release output as "Axis3BrakeRelease".
