M94 M95 Names to number?

[cncian]

This really is not needed but thought it would be nice to have the Wizard define the outputs by name.

Have a look at your PLC program (*.src), starting approx. line 2090. The Wizard is adding comments after each line.

Thank you. That is exactly what I was looking for. I scanned the PLC file earlier but did not see it, and my search terms did not produce a match.

Than you

A few points:

"OUTPUT1", "OUTPUT2", "OUTPUT3" etc. are function names provided by the Wizard and its supporting PLC program. They are not necessarily the same as OUT1, OUT2 and OUT3 on the Acorn board, which are physical relay output points. If you are using the standard Acorn PLC program, and you have not assigned "OUTPUT1" to any physical output via the Wizard, then M61 and M81 will not have any effect.

SV_M94_M95_nn are requests from the CNC program to the PLC program, and do not have any fixed connection to any particular physical outputs. It is up to the PLC program to decide what -- if anything -- to do with a particular SV_M94_M95_nn request.

In general, the PLC program, and the CNC macros that work with it, are free to allocate SV_M94_M95_nn requests for any purpose that may be needed.

Only a small handful have native support in CNC12: M3, M4, M7, M8 and M10. The rest are defined only by the particular PLC program and CNC macros.

There is not necessarily an SV_M94_M95_nn request that will control any particular physical or logic output. The author of the PLC program may decide that a given output is better handled directly by PLC logic, rather than by pass-through requests from a CNC macro.

The only sure way to know what a given SV_M94_M95_nn request does, or whether there is such a request for a given output, is to read the PLC program and macro files.
