Signals for axis switching. They can be used as signals switching the
ServoON in the servo drives. For used axes (section 10.3), the signals
pass active state after pressing the RESET on the Mach screen. If
Mach goes to stop state, the signals are turned off.
Universal outputs. They can be used to control the spindle, cooling and
level of VisualBasic scripts.
Current limit output for stepper motors. If axes of the machine are in
standby mode, there is no need to supply the stepper motors with full
current. This signal becomes active, when any axis is not moving.
Current limit lets us reduce energy consumption and motors heating
up – the same lengthening its life. Unfortunately, many controllers for
stepper motors do not have correct input to connect this signal.
Again, during the system startup the diagnostic window from
the “PlugIn Control” menu may be helpful. In the „Digital IO”
tab, you can view the current output signals state and assess
if any problems result from the wrong configuration or from
the incorrect electrical connection.
