MemberThanks Alden, but what I am looking for is an emergency stop – not a controlled stop. I’d like to be able to power everything down and turn off all outputs. This primarily comes from my experience with milling machines, but I feel like it applies to any computer controlled machine. There should be a way to say “Stop everything right now”. This would typically map to the big red button you see in so many machine shops.
It’s not critical, but maybe something to mull over.
MemberThanks JuKu and alden, that should work okay. I need to parse the status reports anyway so I can provide feedback during a move.
Next question: What do you recommend for an emergency stop situation? What I’d like to do is be able to issue a command and have all outputs turned off immediately. I hacked this into Grbl previously with $1000=1, $1000=0.
Also, one comment on the status reports: If I issue a movement command that results in no movement, no status report is issued. For example, running G0X0 and then G0X0 again the second one will not result in any status reports since no movement actually happens. I personally think that for consistency’s sake, it should at least emit the final report. Just throwing that out there.
Thanks,
Jason
MemberJust to add on to my previous comment, the LED is also working for coolant now, too.

MemberThat did it for me Alden. I can now turn on IN2 (really, OUT2) using M7 and M8 and turn it off with M9. This is on my v6 hardware.
Is there any way to access OUT3?

MemberIt looks like the code change got pushed to the dev branch but I don’t see a new hex in any branch.
MemberThanks Alden, I do have it set to 6.

[hv] hardware version 6.00
tinyg [mm] ok>Can you tell me if the outputs are supposed to be source or sink?
When I run M4 I see the two LEDs nearest the 0 and 1 outputs turn on, but I don’t get a voltage on the outputs. M7 and M8 do not turn on any LEDs.
Thanks,
