Need help with config

[justin bowser]

I am reposting most of this from the "Engraving Machine" section as I feel this is probably a Mach 3 configuration issue.

I purchased a little Chinese 3 axis router/engraver and have everything set up nicely except for spindle control. When I first boot up the PC the spindle is off but as soon as I load Mach3 the spindle starts and will not shut off until I reboot the PC.

I have ordered a little 25 pin breakout board so I can hook up the scope and look for signals as maybe I am trying to control the wrong pin

Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks,

Justin B.

hi,

what sort of spindle are you running?? and how is it connected to your computer?

Just turning it on and off, I got it figured out. It appears you configure a "motor output" pin instead of the one called out as "spindle".

Thanks...
