    wiring question

    I currently use a proma myplasma for my cnc plasma table. In the process of making mounts and adapters to add a router.

    If I wire the router to a separate breakout board and wire everything normal to the drivers for the router(since the myplasma is a stand alone unit and uses it's own program, and the router will use mach3).. when I use 1 or the other is it going to damage the other unit since they will be tied into the same driver?

    It might work OK, but I think I would add switches or relays to isolate the two systems.

    My buddy reccomend leds since they are 1 direction like diodes. Was hoping to not doing any extra wiring as the box is cluttered as it is. Lol
