Hi Scott

Thanks a bunch!
Just to clarify, I cant assign a specific function on the wizard because there is no specific function i want to achieve with the available list. Instead, I keep them at “OUTPUT 3,4 and 5.”

M61 to M68 is a custom (default) macro which i openned and says M94 /61 —-> so /61 correlates to output2 /62 to output2 yes?
Sorry if i made it look like a sounding board. Couldnt help myself to confirm.
Cant wait to test this out in the morning! Thanks scott!

To use OUTPUT3, OUTPUT4, OUTPUT5 use m63, m64 & m65

use Wizard i/o drop down to select OUTPUT3,4,5, etc.. and then the Macro that turns on output three is automatically assigned to that output. M63 in this example for output3.
