Shina Tool Setter sk-66 for PathPilot on a Pro

[bill south]

Hey Folks;
I recently installed PathPilot on my pro and am in the process of installing the needed tools to make life easier. One of my purchases was a Shina Tool Setter. Earlier I posted following request on another thread but decided this may need a thread of its own just to make it easier for future searches. This is my question to Scott on the pathpilot for non tormach thread.

"Hey Scott;
I saw your post where you mentioned that you are using the shina tool setter. Would it be possible to give me the wiring details on that device? I currently have a drawbar setup very similar to the Novakon design which uses the 2 wire normally open contact interface for the probe. I see that the Shina has a 24 volt power requirement recommended in their chingrese instructions and other features (overtravel) that seem useful.
Any help will be appreciated.
Many thanks.
Bill"

This is the information that I have found with my searches:

Will someone much more knowledgable than I explain how to interface this with the Novakon BOB? I want to use the tool setter and still be ableto use my probit passive probe for probing.
Many Thanks (again) for all the help!
Bill

ThanksScott;
I'll go take a look. I don't remember seeing it addressed but at that time I was trying to make pathpilot come alive on my machine so had many other things in my head!
