Most people use the mist or flood commands to turn on their dust collectors, and use M7 or M8 in their g-code to do it.
My spindle is on output 2 and vac is output 1 pin 17 but I can not seem to get them both to tun on when my spindle starts up. ???

Why not pick the Vac up with the outputs on the VFD, or if a Router use a auxiliary contact on a relay if used?
