    C10 enabled when Mach 3 is Opened

    Hi,
    Is there a way to have mach 3 enable the 10 board as soon as the program is opened?

    The problems i am having is i am running the c10 power from the power supply of the computer and i have a relay to turn on the spindle. When the computer is booting twice it triggers the relay and turns on the spindle for less then a second. My idea is to let the computer boot, open mach 3 and as soon as mach 3 opens it sends 5V to the EN port on the board

    Any Suggestions

    Thanks
    Mike

    You can get a charge pump to fix that.
