Z Touch-off plate setup

Post by cmorgan »

Having successfully wired up my Acorn board and set up CNC12, I now want to install a touch-off plate (or TT-1 probe) to set Z zero. Where can I find information about wiring up something and then setting it up and using it in CNC12?
I have a 3-axis CNC machine (with a 2'x3' table) that will primarily be used for woodworking projects.

Perfect. That will get me going. I saw the TT-1 Tool Touchoff schematic in the zip file. Just what I was looking for.
Thanks.
