It is disappointing to say the least, that I need to buy yet more gear to control my vac like the Masso did with a simple plug wired and mounted on the controller. I am not an electrician. What do I need to buy to get this straightened out. I want the vac to come on just like it does with the Masso. is there a video on how this is done for the gen 2 redline? I have that little breakout board, but Realtime shows yet another couple pieces of kit and how to wire it, but it does not look like the breakout board I already have so……. please advise. I am beginning to wonder what I was thinking when I bought this new machine. Endless hiccups. this was supposed to be plug and play and easier than before but nope. It is not. ---

Can you describe in more detail how you controlled the vac on your Masso machine?

sorry ONEFINITY but to me this is deer in the headlight’s material. I have not a clue how to do this or what I need to buy to do it. that wiring diagram might as well be Greek. I need video hand holding. and a parts list i can order on amazon or what ever kind of store sells this stuff. ---

It is odd to me that they sell a vacuum switch the can turn on a 220 volt vacuum from a 120volt tool but not the reverse. They even have a wireless one, but the sender is the 120 volt, and the receiver is the 220 volt, just the opposite of what I need. ---

My frustration is the IoT relay will only handle 110v/10 amps, which limits the functionality to a small shop vac. Most 110v dust collectors are going to draw 15 amps. ---

You could use the relay to actuate a contactor rated at higher amperage. ---

Actually, this has been solved. My problem was that the post processor supplied by vectrics did not allow for the g code needed for the vacuum to come on and off automatically, but when requested, they supplied it free and it work perfectly. ---

I am running VCarve 12.5. Is it possible for you to share the PP you received? ---

Thank you. Today I was able to get my laser to work properly along with everything else on my new machine. I had one little hiccup when I changed from my laser back to the spindle head and had to perform a reboot (power button) because the machine locked up. ---
