No.6 Pin : Z Axis Clock Pulse Signal Output. No.7 Pin : Z Axis Direction Signal Output. No.8 Pin : A Axis Clock Pulse Signal Output. No.9 Pin : A Axis Direction Signal Output. No.10 Pin : Input X Axis Home or Limit Sensor. No.11 Pin : Input Y Axis Home or Limit Sensor. No.12 Pin : Input Z Axis Home or Limit Sensor. No.13 Pin : Input A Axis Home or Limit Sensor. No.14 Pin : Output Control Relay in exterior device 1 No.15 Pin : Input the signal of emergency stop. No.16 Pin : Output Control Relay in exterior device 2 No.17 Pin : Output PWM Pulse for controlling spindle speed. No.18 ~25 Pin : Ground(GND) Pin. This board has equipped with 25 pin Male Connector and the connecting with PC uses 25 strands, direct cable that both edges is made by Male-Female. Home & Limit sensor Port.

It has 3 connectors as above and it has also 3 or 4 pins respectively. It means that +24V pin provides the power supply of exterior sensor And it can link sensor to be input +24V If the sensor is the contact by type of switch, its ok that you do not to use 3

Connecting Port of Emergency Stop Button

This is the Port to join the button that can suspend the system under emergency. No or Nc of button links with EMG and the COM terminal links with GND.

For Home, Limit Sensor & emergency button, you can grasp the status by the LED. If it turned on, it shows that the sign of Low in the Pin detected. Spindle Speed Control & Relay Contact for Exterior Device.

This is the port for spindle speed & exterior device control and it was made by the output used for relaying. The Port for spindle speed control can output with DC voltage(0 ~10V ), So, it can change motors speed by connecting the servo driver or inverter. The relay contact are comprised of NC, COM & NO and 4

The Manual of Mach3, EMC2 Interface Board CM101 the NC is the Normal Close and if the relay doesnt work, it means that both COM terminal & NC are connected and The No means that it is connected if the relay works but it is usually open by Normal Open Driver Connection Port.

This is the port to be joined to driver in each Axis and is composed of Pin like the above picture. The +24V & GND is the Pin to supply electric power to connecting driver. If it is the driver consuming much electric current the thing like step motor driver, It is recommended that it will be connected power supply separately not to use power supply in this port. For linking with driver, applies +/- Line Driver Way and output 1 pulse by DIR/PLS (Example of Samsung Servo)

Both DIR & SIGN are same as a direction signal. PLS, PULS, CLOCK &. CLK are same as a pulse signal. 5

The Manual of Mach3, EMC2 Interface Board CM101 Config in Menu Set it in the Port and Pins as follows.

Confirm the Pin No. & Port No. exactly. ****** You have to press Apply Button without fail before going on to each tap. If it is not, it cant be saved. *******

If it use A Axis, set up it but if it doesnt use, make it by red X mark in the enabled. In Dir Low Active & Step Low Active case, it has to be set after distinguishing well Drivers moving surroundings and the direction, each Axis. And the output Pin for spindle speed control designates by No.17 This process can be changed depends on each user so, it should be followed 8

Setup X Home, Y Home & Z Home.

If it uses A Axis, designate it, If it is not, make it by red X mark in the enabled. Also this set point can be much various in this part according to users or whether it is used by Home or Limit.

Specify EStop pin as above. In Active Low case, apply after differentiating that the emergency stop switch is Active Low or Active High too.

Set output #1, #2, charge pump pin as above. In Active Low case, apply after discriminating in compliance with the exterior device connecting users CNC . This board uses function Charge Pump therefore it must follow to be set Charge Pump Pin and It is the No.1 pin and set it above. If do Spindle & Flood / Mist, remove to have checked at the below picture. If check it, it means that it is not used. 10

6. How to adjust Spindle Speed.

Input your spindles Max Speed as below. If the maximum is 5000 RPM, Put 5000

If so, You can control spindle velocity in Mach Program.

And If it is S1000 in the G code, it means that spindle RPM is 1000 If it is S5000, it means that RPM is 5000

16
JI Robotics

The Manual of Mach3, EMC2 Interface Board CM101 On demanding more fine tuning, fit spindle motor RPM to be the highest first, after finishing every setting and try to measure DCOUT voltage. If the voltage is low, it fits revolving variable resister below picture. You designate ideal voltage repeating adjustment & measurement not to change rapidly.

CCW : DC Voltage Increase

CW : DC Voltage Decrease

7. Further Information
Allotted pin for using Home & Limit Sensor is available in many ways. Both Home Sensor of each axis in CNC and Limit Sensor can connect to one pin together and In the rest of pins, also assign even inputting switch by setting MPG, Probe Sensor & OEM Trigger. For more detailed info. hope that you refer to Mach manual.
