The illusive Boxford 260vmc

You're right they are used as home switches, and i suppose as long as the area is kept clean they would be ok for the job. .

Well when its running i will do some tests and see just how accurate they really are.

Do you have a schematic for the relay add on.

Looking at the data sheet it looks like it will drive a small relay direct, or even switch an input to ground.

Well its not really A wiring diagram but i think you will understand it:-

I'm wondering if the BU wire could be used to directly take a mach input low, or keep it low until the gap appears. If you get chance give it a go.

I did consider this but i was looking at the boxford covered up in the garden pooring with rain and decided i wanted to do something and i just decided i had a 5 relay board and small 12v powersupply so i did it, it may be overkill but at least with the relay design i can utilise the sensors output without a PC fullfilling my manual control Obsession!!! lol

on a bit of a side note, i picked up a soft ended r8 arbour today to test out the auto changer.

there should be a cap head screw that goes through the centre of your easychange holder. Or does the spindle bolt screw into the top of the easy change
