Hi BodeRacing, That's the same setup I'm trying to install. But it looks like you've only used 8 pins and the Renishaw OMI-2T has 13. Any chance you could share the wires and pinouts you used and any install notes I need to be aware of? It would be very much appreciated
Many thanks,
Stephen
- - I need to make some changes. Atrump did not enable tool touch off detect so I did not use it. I did not think it existed in the control, but it does. Parameter was not enabled. The folks on this board helped me figure it out. I need to add it and haven't had the chance yet.
- - I should of spent the money to buy an I/O expansion module. I still might. So I kind of cheated. I would of done more of it in the PLC if I had more outputs available.
- - I did not take the time to read the PLC programming instruction manual. So I kinda winged it on past experience. Not sure the programming is what it should be but it works.
- - I used AUX buttons to enable the spindle and tool touch off probes. See the PLC program for details.
- - JB is the junction box I added at the probe connector.
See if my stuff makes any sense to you...............
I'm still in the process of my initial retrofit and post in here when it's all fitted and tested
