It's not hard just setup the Output Number with the pin numbers your using on your Bob. Then in spindle setup for CW select the output # you used for M3.
Now when you push Torch on it will be like calling M3 which turns on output#.
Still can figure it out can you give me a bit more detail sorry

Has your BOB got a relay on it?
No rely but has one fitted separately. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...28dfd7e952.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...798f431009.jpg

Hmm, the signal in to the relay is a green wire but all the BOB wires are white?
Somewhere, that relay should connect to one of the output pins on the BOB, lets call it PinX, in Ports & Pins you need to set output for spindle to X then in spindle settings set M03 CW & CCW to X as well.
I think that should do it.
No can't make it any clearer than that but I'll repeat it slightly different.Quote:

It's that simple.
In the ports and pins
Is it motor outputs or output signal ?
In output signals is it digit trig?
It also says spidle in motor out puts?

On my setup It's Output #1 and in spindle setup just put 1 in the CW and CCW boxes.
My BOB is configured for output 1 to fire the relay.
Got it to work thanks .the only thing is it will power the relay at the start of a program and only stop powering it at the end of doesn't stop for cut changes and holes etc

Sounds like the wrong post-processor there, code error.
Check the box "IMMEDIATE RELAY OFF BEFORE DELAY" its not your issue but should be checked for plasma, might as well set those 1 second times for 0 as well.
The issue you mentioned sounds like the code you are using is not configured for plasma, can you post what software it was from - SheetCam, Aspire etc and maybe post the code as well.
It's the road runner one on mach 3

Check the box "IMMEDIATE RELAY OFF BEFORE DELAY"
Check the box "DISABLE FLOOD/MIST RELAY"
Ive done all that now still not stopping cuting only at the very end.it that road runner gcode durable for plasma .where could I get a sample gcode from
