Difference I/O signals via ExtIn board or INPUT OUTOUT connector
Hello,
I have questions about the use of input and output signals via the ExtIn board.
Several functions - like switching coolant or using a tool probe - require setting the I/O Pins in the settings menu.
Here you find a pulldown menu that indicates only 8 inputs or 8 outputs.
It is not possible to sellect the ExtIn signals.
What if I want to use additinal inputs or outputs?
So:
1. Is it possible to adress a funktion like switching on/off the coolant to a relay on an additional relay board (through a ExtIn board)?
2. is it possible to use a ExtIn board for the tool probe input?
And when it is not possibel, which functions are affected?
For me it is always a supprise
Best regards,
Marc

Hello SkiPatrol,
thank you for your quick response.
Even not knowing much about scripting I managed it to switch a relay on the EXT relay board by typing M3 in the MDI and switching it off by command M5.
By clicking the icon on the desktop it didn´t work.
But then I found the possibility to change the spindle Command from Native to M-code. (step 2.9.3.4.2 in the manual)
I can go a little further now but I am sure that I come back soon with more questions.
Best regards,
Marc
