I hope this isn't a stupid question but I'll ask it anyhow. I have my gecko wired to my Wj200 and the Gecko also controls an in-box relay for water cooling and vacuum systems. When I send the command for mach 3 to start the spindle, the relay turns on (lights attached for testing) but I don't get any action out of the spindle. The relay is not connected to the VFD at all. I didn't think it was necessary but this might be my error. Do I need a connection between the two or should my spindle work independantly of the relays functionality? I saw CNC3678 had a thread where he wired the relay to "Digital input 1" but wanted to check before I start playing with wires again. Currently I have gecko output 7,8 and 9 to the VFD's L,O and H. Then the VFD gets direct power from the 240 outlet. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. No rush, 5 hours of staring at this has called for a break anyhow.
Thank you for your time!
