Hi,

I'm currently setting up my new configuration. I need to map an output that is triggered from two LEDs. In my case the "Spindle CW" or"Spindle CCW" should trigger an output (Spindle Cooling Fan). In the I/O Trigger screen I can only set 1 output to one LED. How can I configure a logical "OR"? Do I need to write a macro for that? Usually I prefer to use the settings screen...

In this case, wouldn't two separate output triggers work?

No, because then the output is flickering. This is because on of the inputs is "1" and the other "0"....

Create a macro, e.g. M400.txt:

Code: Select all

exec.SetLED(exec.GetLED(50) | exec.GetLED(51), 400);


Set it as a macroloop and then LED 400 will turn on if M3 or M4 is on. Set output trigger to use LED 400. (You don't need to place the LED on the screen.)

Thank you! This was the alternative solution I thought about...
