I am trying to get the M10 micro to activate the predefined OUTPUT 9 but no luck when i type m10 in the MDI line never tried in a program
also wanted to know what the MSM OEM code is for spindle CW CCW STOP I don't think there the same as mach
what i have is the MPG16 board from CNC4PC and the spindle button on the panel doesn't to be working like I had hoped when the button is pressed the spindle starts and stops
also when mach boots up the spindle starts @ minimum speed

Hi,

When I looked it up, I see that M10 and M11 are Open chuck and close chuck for fanuc controls.
But M10 and M11 are not listed in the Mach gcode references... then I looked an see that mach provides a M10 and M11 script for mach lathe profiles. The scripts just do ActivateSignal( 9 ) and DeActivateSignal( 9 ).
All of that is independent of MSM as it is all done by mach.
I'd suggest checking to see if M10 and M11 work at all when running mach (with 1024), if not the next thing to do is ask ArtSoft about it.

MSM just uses the OEM codes that mach has. However, MSM does not issue an OEM Code for the CW, CCW, or spindle Off buttons, instead it issues the corresponding gcode: M3, M4, M5.

I can't help much here as I'm unfamiliar with the CNC4PC product - I'd suggest contacting Arturo at CNC4PC to ask about how the mach interface to that panel should be configured.
