    Default Router auto start

    Nor sure this is the right forum group to put this in but I figured someone could help me out.

    I have a Torchmate CNC and I saw a picture of a little box a guy was using that would automatically turn the router on and off. all that had to be done was a simple line at the beginning and end of the G Code.

    Does anyone know where I can get one of these little modules ?

    You need a solid state relay. Wire the relay to your CNC breakout board and to your spindle also. Do a search for solid state relay.

    I don't think my g-code generates a line to enable my spindle. My mach3 enables it once the program starts up. I'm running RS232 to RS485 to the VFD. I think the Solid State Relay is the way to go on a router though
