HI Team.
I want to rotate the C axis (rotary) on my acorn 4 custom machine by using a foot pedal.
the idea is to wire the signal wire into the input channel and once stepped on/ activated the C axis will rotate.
The issue is I don't have this option in the dropdown menu where I need to assign this functionality to the input signal.
Is there a way we can do this?
Looking forward to your response.
Regards
