AXBBe Laser M10/M11 not working

[Delco]

Using V2.2112 , wired as per the wiring diagram in the manual , wired output pin 17 port 1 to the ttl wire on the diode laser.

Set laser output pin/port in i/o output page 1 to pin 17 port 1

Using Gcode (Laser)

Now the laser is on as soon a I turn the main power to it on , at no stage does the laser go off with M11 or change with M10 settings.

in diagnostics I can see pin 17 turning on and off

I have checked ttl wiring and when O volts applied to it laser is off , when open circuit or 5V applied laser is on
checked 12V power wiring and earth wiring - all good

Laser has 12V , Gnd and TTl wires only

For some reason pin 17 port 1 on the AXBBE is not going low when a M11 issued . I have tried setting laser pin to active low - no change


Any ideas or have I missed something - spindle operation is as std with control of VFD - do I need to make a seperate profile and disable spindle ?

I can find very little in the manual about M10/M11 setup

Found the problem , my AXBBE is non functional on pin 17 port 1 , moved the wiring to pin 16 port 1 and changed setting in software and it works fine.

tested pin 17 by wiring again and its dead

I never tested pin 17 before and its most likely out of warranty now

We test all I/Os on all AXBB-E controllers using automatic tester boards, so it is not possible that it was not working, because it would then not pass the test.

Well I have one that has no control , works if I use pin 16 but not 17 ??? and yes i change the software pin from 16 to 17 and vise versa.

Maybe something else is also configured to that pin?

[Delco]

No because if it is the the software wont allow you select it , I have checked and it shows activation and deactivation on the diagnostic screen when using pin 17 port 1 and it changes to pin 16 port 1 when I change the wiring and software setting , checked every setting and pin 17 is not configured anywhere else . If the distances and time did not take so long I would just send it back for repair - I will just live with it
