wired mpg E-Stop integrate into plc

[Houseman303]

I connected a wired handwheel to the Oak. Now the E-Stop button still needs to be programmed in the PLC.

There are several ways to do it.

The simplest is to just locate every place where the PLC program tests "EStopOk_I" and expand that to read "(EStopOk_I && MPG_AUX_1_I)" (assuming, of course, that your MPG E-Stop button is normally-closed).

Buongiorno Houseman303,
Did you connect a handweel with an integrated emergency button?
How did you connect him to Oak?
Thank you in advance.

Emergency stop at MpgAux In1 and +5v. NC switching of the emergency stop. PLC programming is above.

Grazie,

In Europe it is necessary to have this emergency button.

Until now I have solved it in other ways, but this is much better.

Thanks again.

That's why I also have a wired handwheel. Wireless handwheel is not safety compliant. I could still imagine it with a Linux system, but definitely not with Windows 10/11!

i've been using it for about 5 years now, not one issue if you have windows configured properly for CNC use.

We also use it without problems, but in Europe, the handweel MUST have a hardware emergency button to the current regulations.
