The new relay board is in, but the lights are all green and not corresponding to the H10, which shows all red.

I connected two wires with lose ends to Out4, which I have never connected to, for experiment. I am not turning Out4 on through the controller. When I force NC (led on) and test for resistance, I get none, which makes sense. When I force NO (led off) and test for resistance, I still get none, which,...

Hi, Joey, For Out 2, whether I force the led green or red in the PLC diagnostic menu I am getting a closed switch, which may account for the plasma cutter turning on when the machine starts without the CNC12 running. When I switch the black wire from the first terminal to the 3rd (NC usually), and I...

Any way to test/diagnose the relay board? How does Out 2 on the DB25 board connector work? Should I just connect one of 1/2 to com, and another to this Out 2? Can I send Out 2 from the DB25 to an alternate relay? I haven't tried anything yet, afraid to fry the DB25. Just ordered this for tomorrow, w...

Having a rough time. Across the com and NO on Out2 I get 0v when the VCP is TorchOn. To understand, I loosened the screws on the top of the Phoenix. When I do, there is a point at which the relay switches and the torch goes on. When I try to tighten it, the torch goes off. Loosen it, torch goes on. ...

When you say "put through the relay", how exactly are you connecting 1/2 to the output relay? Are you connecting 1/2 to the common and NO terminals? https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMyTQ7u1E8oEb3gBsJL0OM1a-3DoISjWjv6-R0RQ9HVhfbC5wyxVSZ-9UKOfj3xvw/photo/AF1QipOnq_y258rpbiU1Qc5aOcKL68l...

report_3484E41A16E5-0112247823_2024-10-07_11-22-31.zip I've switched the 1/2 back to Out2 and it is consistently firing the torch when I turn the machine on, before CNC12 is started. So the relay Out2 is tripping when the machine is started up, before CNC12. I've disconnected 3/4 entirely and it st...

Ok, I moved to Out 4 and then shut down after altering the TorchOn pin in the Wizard to Out 4. When I restarted the machine, before starting CNC12, the torched turned on. When CNC12 started, it turned off. But when I turned on the torch through the VCP, it does not function. So it is a bit different...

There must be another approach to getting the torch to turn on through the relay. The red and black (1/2) when connected together directly fire the torch. When put through the relay Out 2, and the torch is turned on through the VCP, the light for Out 2 on H10 turns on but the torch does not fire. Wh...

Do the LEDs on the Acorn and the relay board corresponding to OUT2 match in color? Do they change when the output is toggled? Yes, they match/correspond, and change when output is toggled. Can you explain to me the function of the 3/4 wires (TorchArcOK)? Maybe that they have been connected incorrec...
