First time poster. I’m hoping someone can help With MASSO G3 set up.
Here’s the situation, I have hacked a Oneida wireless remote (See picture). I have confirmed this is functioning. My plan is to connect this to two relays driven by auxiliary outputs on the MASSO.
I’m trying to figure out a way to have masso send a momentary signal to an auxiliary output to simulate button push to start dust collector. And then a second auxiliary momentary button press to turn off the dust collector.
I know G code M64 PX Will turn on an auxiliary, but I only want a momentary signal, say output for three seconds.
To my post processor in Vectric, I added an “M64 P1” which turns on auxiliary 1 output on the MASSO. Followed by a “G04 P3000” which dwells for three seconds”. Then a “M65 P1” Which turns off auxiliary 1.
I’ll use auxiliary 1 to send a 5 V signal to a simple relay which will connect the Oneida fob “on” switch for my dusk collector.
Then I did the same for the signal to turn off the dust collector in the footer of the post processor (using aux2 output).
I’m waiting on the relay to arrive to confirm functionality, but I’ve already tested that the G code works with a multimeter. And I’ve already confirmed that the hacked dust collector fob can turn on and off the dust collector when I bridge those wires.
For me, this was a less expensive and simpler alternative to doing something with I-vac.
