CNC ROUTER to CNC ROUTER AND PLASMA

[shadowdog]

Hello, I am trying to add a plasma torch to my CNC but I am having difficulty getting the output signals to reliably fire both the Anti dive and torch via an external relay connected to the output ports. I cannot find documentation on which ports use which pins so I can configure in the output config in mach3.
I am using the CNC Mach3 motion control card-MKX-IV found at http://www.cdxhctech.com/html/eProduct/ ... 5_337.html and with this card would be possible to use some of the spare axis outputs to fire the relays instead? It has six and I am using three.
Can someone please recommend a solution on the best way to approach it with this BOB thank you.

You need to figure out which output signal go with the relay outputs, the you go to the Mach 3 configure menu then to the output signals menu scroll down to the output # 1 to 6, match the output (relay connected to for torch ) and enable it and put the pin number in there and you may need the port of 1 too. Then to spindle setup and place the pin number in the output you are using.
you can test by hitting F5 to turn the torch on/off.
