How can I set up the black box to allow both a Laser and my spindle to be connected. Currently my VFD is connected like this From Left to Right: Toolhead: GRD: Black wire PWM: Empty DIR: Empty 0-10V: Red wire per the Blackbox documentation the laser would connect GRD: Black wire PWM: Red Wire DIR: Empty 0-10V: Empty If i make my connections lie this, will my laser work GRD: Black wire (VFD) Black wire (Laser) PWM: Red Wire (Laser) DIR: Empty 0-10V: Red wire The laser is FoxAlien 80W
In theory correct yes. Then to switch between laser and spindle, control which device is powered up (laser off, vfd on = spindle. Laser on, vfd off = laser) and remember to switch $32=0/$32=1 (macro buttons or gcode posts)
