function – this signal is useless.
EStop
Emergency stop. You should pay special attention to set this signal
correctly and test how it is functioning.
THC On
For plasma cutters. During plasma cutting a machine stops automati-
cally, when this signal becomes inactive.
THC Up
For plasma cutters. Signal of automatic torch high control, an active
state causes Z-axis rising.
THC Down
For plasma cutters. Signal of automatic torch high control, an active
state causes Z-axis lowering.
OEM Trig 1-15
External function releasing. Using these signals, you can e.g. start a
program with a button on a machine desktop.
JOG X++, JOG Y++, JOG Z++,
JOG A++
Signals that allow for motion of each axis in manual mode (movement
in a positive direction).
JOG X--, JOG Y--, JOG Z--,
JOG A--
Signals that allow for motion of each axis in manual mode (movement
in a negative direction).
If you are not sure on which input in the CSMIO/IP-A is one of the
signals connected, then you can open diagnostic window from
the „Plugin Control/CSMIO_IP_P_plugin” menu, go to the „Digital
IO” tab and in the „Digital inputs” area there is a preview of all
inputs state of our controller. Then you can just e.g. pressing a
limit switch manually to look at a screen, and see, which input
changed its state. You can also watch the LEDs located on the
controller.
After all input signals configuration it's worth to check,
whether it has been done correctly. To do so, close the
configuration window, approving with „OK” and then go
to the „Diagnostics” screen (top button bar in Mach3
program window).
Under the „Input Signals current State”, there are con-
trols, which show current state of input signals of the
Mach3 program. Now you can press the emergency
stop button, the „Emergency” LED should start flash-
ing. The same way you can check other signals, e.g. by
pressing manually the limit, homing switches and so on.
Check carefully the E-STOP signal functioning before you continue your configuration.
It is very important
to have possibility to stop the machine immediately, especially during the first run and configuration!
