I need to know if there is a way to check chuck signals using user task/ macros. For example
IF [sub spindle is unchucked (M249)] DO this routine.

IF [sub spindle is chucked (M248)] DO this routine.

Is this something that is possible? If so and how.

This will be used on a U4000. Very similar to a Multus.

Thanks.

You are looking for VIRD or VORD variables. Those are the variables for system inputs and outputs. In our Multus U3000 and LT3000 we check the output for the chuck closed light on the control, main spindle is

IF[VORD[0038] NE 1]NS4

Sub spindle is

IF[VORD[003A] NE 1]NS21

hy mowzece just like yodoug said : v*rd variables

how the list is loooooong, in case you can not find it easy, is possible to search through all labels, to find the right argument

please, feel free to ask anything / kindy
