    I have the Blackbox X32 and got my IOT in today. Two wires connected to the Tool connector polarity connected right but I have no idea what settings I need to change in grblhal so it’s enabled

    Nothing - should already work. Use the Tool on/Off menus in CONTROL to test

    I have the router plugged into the NC and the control wires plugged into the Tool sensor but if I enable the Spindel it doesn’t turn on. I will check for voltage on the control wires when I get home

    Thank you for your help!!!!!!
