    Is it possible to have a vfd spindle wired into the tool head plug for 0-10v and also use the relay port to power an iot relay? I’d like to plug my vfd and industrial water chiller into the iot so I can control them to turn on with my cam software.

    if possible, I’m assuming the jumper needs to be moved to M8 and then a simple M8 command with a pause for however long to fire up the vfd and chiller, then M3 with another pause to let the spindle spool up?

    Thank you, that’s exactly what I’ll do. should have looked at the connections a bit more to see that the coolant port offered a 24v signal.

    I’m assuming I should remove the jumper that’s installed for the relay port?
