Hi to all.
Firstly thanks to all with the help on inputs / outputs. hi's or low's
After many nights work the first interface board for a starmill in now complete, just tested it out on the bench and works
realy well, the spindle speed control is now performing as it should, did find a slight glitch R18 in the above scematic
should go to +12v and not gnd. it is all opto isolated and electricaly isolated from the main 5volt supply, all the inputs / outputs are opto isolated.
at the moment it has 4 inputs and 8 outputs
Let me know if you re interested in the schematic and BOM for the board and i can send you a copy.
the interface should also work for the starturn lathe. Best regards to all
Paul
