HI can any one show me wear to find the pin out information on the Allin1DC probe socket
I have just Upgraded to the pro software and already own some aftermarket Probes and height setters
Would like to use them on my Allin1DC powered mill and Oak powered Lathe
Regards
Peter Wood

See attached.
The probe trip input, INP769, is the "probe mechanical input" on pin 8.
In the simplest case, your probe should close the mechanical input (pin 8) to 12V COM (pin 2 or 3).

Thanks much appreciated
Peter

Hi cncsnw
The tool setter on my OAK powered lathe has normally closed switches
What would be you suggestion

Regards
Peter

You still wire it between INP769 and 12V COM.

You can either experiment with the degree to which CNC12 does (or does not) correctly handle a normally-closed probe, or you can modify your PLC program to invert INP769 so the probe appears to be normally-open.

That inversion can be done by adding "SV_LOCAL_DEBOUNCE_2 = 16843073," to the list of unconditional actions in InitialStage.

Thanks Ill have a play
